Additional InformationUpon awakening with a start in an icy bathtub in a strange room--with a woman's dead body inconveniently nearby--John Murdoch can't remember how he got there. With a police detective hot on his trail and a psychiatrist skulking around, Murdoch discovers that the key to his mystery is the presence of strange extraterrestrial creatures, the Strangers, who are experimenting with the memories of the humans in his city--from which there may be no escape. Ambitious sci-fi noir, with rich production design and a dense, Kafkaesque concept.
ReviewsNew York Times - ...Relentlessly trippy in a fun-house sort of way....A visually arresting ride that offers many unsettling surprises..., USA Today - ...Director Alex Proyas (THE CROW) treats and photographs Sewell like a film noir figure...

  • dvd had few glitches

    Dvd had few glitches. I cleaned it thoroughly. But it still glitched. Only couple of quid, so no point sending it back. But the glitching spoiled the watching. big time.

  • Dark City

    Interesting look to this movie but not a great story line. Unfortunate that this movie was sold to the UK but was not a 'Region 2' disc. It played but NOT in the right format!
