Synopsis

FBI criminal profiler Will Graham is called out of early retirement to assist on a deadly case involving a murderer known as the “Tooth Fairy.” After enlisting the help of imprisoned serial killer Dr. Hannibal Lecktor, Graham and the FBI are soon entangled in a menacing cat-and-mouse game…

Our take

From the master American filmmaker Michael Mann, Manhunter is a truly experiential foray into two opposing minds. Belying its 80s neon hues and (welcome!) pop music cues, the film grows into a complexly woven inquiry into the origins of serial murder and its amorphous relation with domesticity.
