Seven - Andrew Kevin Walker

Andrew Kevin Walker's scripts profess a dark vision of humanity in which forces of good are pitted against voracious evil.Seven: A serial killer called 'John Doe' is on the loose. He has a taste for literary allusion, and his victims are butchered in grotesque accordance with the dictates of the seven deadly sins. The cops investigating the case - a grizzled old veteran on the verge of retirement and a fresh-faced youngster - are at a loss, until the killer walks straight into their hands, and gives the film its final, horrible twist.8mm: Tom Welles is a private detective, with a family and a conscience. The widow of a wealthy steel magnate hires him to track down the provenance of an appalling 'snuff' film, found among her late husband's possessions, in which a teenage girl is butchered. The girl's trail leads into Hollywood's hardcore pornographic demi-monde; and in the course of his investigation, Welles learns that any fantasy can be filmed to order, albeit at a terrible price.The volume also contains a comprehensive interview by Mark Salisbury in which Walker describes his creative process.
