Copycat (1995) Helen Hudson is a psychiatrist who specializes in serial killers. She suffers from agoraphobia and her only link to the outside world is her computer. A serial killer who copies the methods of famous serial killers (hence the title) threatens her on-line. Holly Hunter plays a cop who is on the trail of the killer. Together they try to identify him and, hopefully, dispatch him.

Movie Tagline:
One man is copying the most notorious killers in history one at a time. Together, two women must stop him from killing again. Or they're next.

Movie Quote(s):
  • M.J. Monahan: Nobody in this department has ever worked a serial case before. Lt. Quinn: Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, I have. M.J. Monahan: The Zodiac, right? Lt. Quinn: That's right. M.J. Monahan: Did anyone ever catch the Zodiac, sir, or did he die of old age?
  • Helen: Fuck you. Peter: What? Helen: You heard me, you little twerp. Do you think I'm afraid of you? Peter: I know you are. Helen: I know all about you. You're just a sad, second rate, boring, impotent little copycat. [laughter] Peter: Watch it bitch or I will slice that smile off your face, do you hear me? Helen: Daryll Lee couldn't get it up either. Peter: DO YOU HEAR ME? Helen: [spits in Peter's face] Peter: OK, I see Helen. Nice try. You wanna know a little secret? Huh? I'm on to your trick.

Movie Trivia:
  • Sigourney Weaver is almost a foot taller than Holly Hunter, thus for many scenes Weaver would be sitting down to make their heights appear more equal.
  • The climactic bathroom scene took 8 days to film.
  • To research her role, Sigourney Weaver consulted with leading forensic psychiatrist 'Park Deitz', who had interviewed serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer.
  • Holly Hunter hung about with several homicide detectives in downtown L.A. to help her get into her character.
  • In earlier versions of the script, the character of M.J. Monahan was written as a man and a romance would develop between Monahan and Helen Hudson.
