Peacock’s new true crime documentary series Myth of the Zodiac Killer reexamines the evidence collected, including the letters and cryptograms, using new technology. The trailer for the two-part docuseries reveals investigators will be using AI to help figure out if all of the correspondence was, in fact, written by just one individual.
Peacock offers this description of the docuseries premiering on Tuesday, July 11, 2023: “The identity of the serial killer known as ‘The Zodiac’ has been confounding investigators for nearly fifty years, but an unlikely and unconventional theorist may have finally shed light to America’s most famous cold case by asking a question that no one else has ever dared ask: what if the reason the Zodiac has never been caught…is because he never existed in the first place?”
Andrew Nock directed the documentary series and serves as an executive producer along with David Karabinas, Brad Bernstein,...

(Welcome to Scariest Scene Ever, a column dedicated to the most pulse-pounding moments in horror with your tour guides, horror experts Chris Evangelista and Matt Donato. In this edition, Chris takes a trip to Lake Berryessa with "Zodiac.")
David Fincher's "Zodiac" was a box office disappointment when it arrived in 2007. Despite this, those who bothered to see the dang film came away impressed, and in the years since its release, "Zodiac" has risen to become considered by many (myself included) David Fincher's best film. Meticulously crafted and just as obsessive as both Fincher and the characters in the film, "Zodiac" isn't your normal serial killer movie. In fact, the killings stop rather early in the movie, and from there, "Zodiac" becomes less about the killer and more about the characters on his trail. Tense, funny, shocking, and often overwhelming, "Zodiac" is one of the best movies of the early 2000s.

He left encrypted messages after each of his chilling murders. Now a movie has sparked new interest in the brutal story of the serial killer who stalked the West Coast in the Sixties - and who has never been brought to justice. By Paul Harris
The tiny island lies just off the western shoreline of Lake Berryessa, north of San Francisco. It is an idyllic spot, perfect for relaxation underneath the lone tree that provides shade from the sun. Last week, as people sunbathed and barbecued yards away, there was no clue to the evil that happened there. No clue except in the name locals now give the place: Zodiac Island.
That name was coined on 27 September 1969, when Cecelia Shepard, 22, and Bryan Hartnell, 20, chose the island as a spot to spend a last lovers' afternoon before they headed off to different colleges. They relaxed in each other's company, taking advantage...
