Copycat

This movie takes a very marketable concept - of a serial killer copying the styles of the famous murderers throughout modern history - and treats it with enough seriousness and dignity to be quite a good movie.
After an attack by a psycho, criminal psychologist Weaver becomes agoraphobic, and - joining forces with detective Hunter - to bring down a new killer on the loose.
Good performances are a given, and the slowly building sense of effective dread make it an effective thriller.
