People have been addicted to this on Netflix.

Certain directors are extremely skilled when it comes to specific genres. Tim Burton's gothic fantasies continue to make an absolute fortune at the box-office. Wes Anderson remains one of the finest auteurs in Hollywood while writing some amazing characters.  Nobody can embrace fairy tales and fables better than Guillermo Del Toro. As for David Fincher, he knows what makes the mind of a killer work. Se7en, Zodiac, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, Gone Girl are proof of this. Simply put, he's the master of the macabre. We're not going to spoil Mindhunter too much for you, but the show is set in the late 1970s as two FBI agents expand criminal science by delving into the psychology of murder and getting uneasily close to all-too-real monsters. JOE's resident TV and film aficionado Rory Cashin has an extremely interesting take on the first two episodes, but he's not the only one that's impressed by Fincher's latest feature. With an average rating of 94% on Rotten Tomatoes, plenty of people have been utterly addicted to this brutal world of serial killers. https://twitter.com/StephenKing/status/920100547369332738 https://twitter.com/geniusofevil/status/920348789533052928 https://twitter.com/ollyog/status/920249688334454784 https://twitter.com/FrontlineFire/status/920369285733556224 https://twitter.com/ScottWamplerBMD/status/919201420569608193 https://twitter.com/J0Marshll/status/920103099611484160 https://twitter.com/rileyles/status/920370496570626052 All ten episodes of Mindhunter are available on Netflix. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gZCfRD_zWE
