Favorite Movie #77 - Halloween Edition: the Bone Collector

Favorite movies that have had an impact on me - #77 - The Bone Collector (1999) - This movie is billed more as a crime thriller, but for me The Bone Collector is pure horror. It's got lots wrong with it — an ultimately unsatisfying bad guy and some gratuitous deaths that weren't even in the original book by Jeffrey Deaver — but what sells this film for me and why I have watched it a few times is:

1. The undeniably hot hot hot chemistry between Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie 
2. The Ye Olde New York City crimes and locations based on turn of the century detective novels and magazines (the movie is more of a book-related puzzle to be solved than an action movie) 
3. The great supporting cast, including Queen Latifah, Luis Guzmรกn, Bobby Cannavale, Ed O'Neill, etc. 

Angelina and Denzel are so great together — they really need to consider teaming up again.

Hey, I guess it's technically a holiday film, too.
