Seven gets a Biblical twist (along with teenagers and the Internet, of course) as tortured and mutilated victims start showing up with references to Revelations festooning the crime scenes. Dennis Quaid plays the forensics specialist who must track down the cadre of killers before they can complete the set of four ritualized murders they appear to have in mind. And once again, the psychos whip wildly back and forth between meticulous attention to detail and scatterbrained improvisation. But the biggest disappointment here is that they bet the farm on the mystery element. Now, I’m no great mystery solver, but by halfway through I’d figured out who the mastermind was and how it was going to end. So that’s 45 minutes worth of the movie that I didn’t need to sit through. Mildly amusing
