I watched two movies yesterday which I've seen before, the previous times watching them were around the mid-2000s, both movies are pretty entertaining for a crime-solving horror genre.

Silence of the Lambs (1991): An FBI trainee is recruited to persuade a violent serial killer, "Hannibal the cannibal", to help cooperate and disclose what he knows about another mentally-deranged serial killer still on the loose, "Buffalo Bill", before another kidnapped woman gets skinned alive. To get a hold of solid testimony identifying the killer before it is too late, Hannibal requests transfer to a more accommodating prison where he can see the outdoors from his high-security prison cell. Considering he is a brilliant former psychologist who has outwitted and killed law enforcement in his past, this proves to be a very difficult and dangerous negotiation.

Hannibal (2001): Taking place 10 years after the first film, Hannibal remains a free fugitive on the FBI's top ten most wanted dangerous criminals. There is a heavy reward for information on his whereabouts that could lead to his capture. The price for that reward comes with great risk to anyone who dares try setting Hannibal up in a sting operation. The former FBI trainee now full time employee is still dedicated to the case, but has become ensnared in controversy when previous sting operations end up messy with agents and others unnecessarily killed. Regardless what the FBI thinks, it may be up to her to capture Hannibal as she knows him as well as he knows her.
