This week on Totally 80’s and 90’s Recall, Dave, Rob, and Kurt dive deep into the dark, rain-soaked world of 1995’s Se7en — David Fincher’s gritty psychological thriller that had audiences whispering “What’s in the box?!” for decades. Starring Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman as detectives hunting a serial killer who uses the seven deadly sins as inspiration for his gruesome crimes, Se7en defined the decade’s darker turn in filmmaking. With its grim atmosphere, haunting visuals, and shocking finale, it remains one of the most disturbing — and influential — movies of the ’90s.
But the big question is: does Se7en still hold up today? Dave will weigh in on whether the story’s tension and moral questions still grip audiences like they did in ’95, while Rob dissects the film’s visual style and how Fincher’s signature bleakness set the stage for modern thrillers. Meanwhile, Kurt — always the voice of psychological insight — will explore whether the film’s twisted themes make it timeless or just plain creepy in hindsight. Together, the trio will decide if Se7en deserves a spot among the decade’s masterpieces or if it’s better left sealed in that infamous box.
