Copycat (1995)

The Blind Rage Podcast tackles COPYCAT (1995), a sleek, methodical thriller where a BESPECTACLED MANIAC models HIS CRIMES after the work of notorious serial KILLERS. Sigourney Weaver stars as Helen Hudson, a criminal psychologist battling paralyzing agoraphobia after a brutal attack. She's reluctantly pulled back into the spotlight to consult on a series of murders that feel all too familiar. Holly Hunter plays Detective M.J. Monahan, keeping things sharp, blunt, and brilliantly dry. We get into the film’s slow-burn suspense, grim attention to detail, and a truly nasty turn from Harry Connick, Jr. as a greasy predator with a smug streak. COPYCAT combines procedural precision with full-blown paranoia—and somehow makes it all feel way too plausible.
