Helen Hudson is a psychiatrist who specializes in serial killers. She suffers from agoraphobia and her only link to the outside world is her computer. A serial killer who copies the methods of famous serial killers (hence the title) threatens her on-line. Holly Hunter plays a cop who is on the trail of the killer. Together they try to identify him and, hopefully, dispatch him.

Movie Trivia:

The climactic bathroom scene took 8 days to film.
-
To research her role, Sigourney Weaver consulted with leading forensic psychiatrist 'Park Deitz', who had interviewed serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer.
-
Holly Hunter hung about with several homicide detectives in downtown L.A. to help her get into her character.
-
In earlier versions of the script, the character of M.J. Monahan was written as a man and a romance would develop between Monahan and Helen Hudson.
