Manhunter

Manhunter (1986)
Dir: Michael Mann

An FBI agent tracks a serial killer dubbed 'The Tooth Fairy', who appears to kill at random.
Michael Mann's adaption of the Thomas Harris novel Red Dragon is a classic of 80s style and atmosphere. It's masterfully directed and acted, with a standout lead performance from William Petersen. The film gives you real insight into the minds of the protagonists, which in turn leads to some very memorable sequences.
