VHS Description
"Crackling good. Nail-bitingly tense. Tautly directed." -Janet Maslin, THE NEW YORK TIMES

The best-reviewed thriller of 1995 is Copycat, a sensational adrenaline pumper about the desperate hunt for a mass murderer with an elusive m.o.: he copies serial killers of the recent past.

He's out there but who is he? When, where and how will he next strike? An ambitious San Francisco homicide detective (Academy Award winner Holly Hunter) and a noted criminal psychologist (Sigourney Weaver) piece together a jigsaw puzzle of crime as they close in on a fiend with a knack for staying a step ahead...and leaving a body behind.

Jon Amiel (Sommersby) directs "the smartest and most gripping thriller since The Silence of the Lambs" (Jack Mathews, Newsday). Dermot Mulroney, William McNamara, Harry Connick, Jr., Will Patton, and other co-stars bring extra heat to the film's feverish race against time. For the ultimate in suspense and excitement, choose Copycat. But remember: he's out there.
