Jodie Foster, Anthony Hopkins and quite a few other people won Oscars for their part in this modern day Gothic horror.

Uniquely unsettling, terrifying even, director Jonathan Demme takes us deep into the psychology of evil and good in the hunt for a girl who has been kidnapped by a serial killer.

No one will emerge unscathed after this journey.
