Since summertime is the perfect time for thrilling suspense movies, we’ve decided to turn our August crime film, Zodiac, into its own electrifying, four-part mini-series on Tuesdays at 7 p.m.
On July 30, see The Fugitive (1993), featuring Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones. Wrongly convicted of murdering his wife, Dr. Richard Kimble escapes from custody and begins searching for his wife’s one-armed killer while U.S. Marshal Sam Gerard and his expert team track Kimble down.
On August 6, watch Cast Away (2000), featuring Tom Hanks and Wilson. Federal Express troubleshooter Chuck Noland proposes to his girlfriend, gets on a plane that crashes in the Pacific Ocean, drifts to a remote island far from civilization, and fights to survive on his own without help or human contact.
On August 13, view Zodiac (2007), featuring Mark Ruffalo, Robert Downey, Jr., and Jake Gyllenhaal. Two San Francisco police detectives, a reporter, and an editorial cartoonist spend years searching for Zodiac, the real-life serial killer who taunted his pursuers with cypher-filled letters.
On August 20, follow The Revenant (2015), featuring Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hardy. Mauled by a grizzly bear and buried alive by fellow fur trapper John Fitzgerald, Hugh Glass survives and tracks Fitzgerald across the boundless and unforgiving American frontier to get his revenge.
