Basic Instinct
Johnny Boz is a former rock star and is brutally murdered during sex. Detective Nick Curran is assigned the case by the SFPD. Nick is introduced to Catherine Tramell who is a crime writer and was Boz’s lover when he died. Catherine is very manipulative and clever, and Nick believes that Catherine murdered Boz. However, Nick cannot find evidence to support his belief. Nick later suspects Catherine of being involved in Nilsen’s murder, Nick’s police rival. To nail Catherine, he plays a dangerous, lust-fueled mind game. However, as they grow closer, their body counts rise and conflicting evidences make Nick question his suspicions. –Soumitra
