SE7EN

5Keep the coffee hot: It's gonna be a long night ahead (and we haven't even gotten to the contents of the box yet).

Armed with an ingenious concept and intriguing premise, the morbid and macabre SE7EN helped launch the careers of stylish director David Fincher and intense lead actor Brad Pitt, who stars as cocky young cop David Mills broken in by his retiring predecessor Detective William Somerset (Morgan Freeman). Together, they investigate a series of ritualistic murders perceptibly inspired by the seven cardinal sins - Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Sloth, Wrath, Envy and Pride - and committed by one psychopathic John Doe (Kevin Spacey). A yardstick for films like THE BONE COLLECTOR and most notably SAW.
