Winner of the NEXT Innovator Award at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival, ZODIAC KILLER PROJECT is a film about a documentary that was never made. What begins as an exploration of one man’s obsession with catching the Zodiac Killer quickly transforms into a bold, anti-true crime investigation into our cultural fixation with the genre.
Set against sun-drenched landscapes, empty hallways, and abandoned homes, Charlie Shackleton takes us through the film his team never completed, weaving a speculative narrative that engages our imaginations with irreverent humour and razor-sharp precision. A distinct and singular vision, this meta rollercoaster ride of a film is a richly layered examination of documentary ethics, implicating both filmmaker and audience.
