What’s in the box??
No seriously. We need to talk about it.
In this episode of The VHS Club, we’re rewinding to Seven (1995), David Fincher’s bleak, rain-soaked thriller that permanently altered the vibe of 90s cinema. Starring Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman, this movie is all grit, dread, and slow-building horror that sticks with you long after the tape stops spinning.
Join us as we spiral together, unpacking:
- The Seven Deadly Sins as a deeply unsettling narrative device
- Brad Pitt’s raw 90s intensity vs. Morgan Freeman’s weary gravitas
- David Fincher’s signature visual style and why this movie feels so oppressive
That ending. Yes. That ending. We are not okay.
Is Seven a flawless thriller or a beautifully crafted nightmare you only revisit when you’re emotionally prepared? Either way, it’s a VHS-era classic that demands discussion.
So dim the lights, hug your couch pillow, and press play. This one gets dark. (But don't worry. We'll still bring the laughs).
Oh and watch this to see the brilliance of David Fincher.
