這是新線公司1998年推出的一部黑色（Film Noir）科幻片，講述John Murdoch一覺醒來發現自己身邊躺著一具尸體，他也無法確認自已是否是兇手，原來這個城市是被一班外星人所控制，他們用念力使時間停頓，并改變城市環境，和轉換人類記憶……本片雖然不像《烏鴉》那樣帶有強烈的死亡氣息，但影片的黑色基調仍然使人壓抑得喘不過氣來，是1998年上映過的最陰森的科幻電影，畫面極其詭麗，搭配《Sway》這首50年代最著名的爵士女伶、演員茱莉-倫敦演唱的歌曲又讓科幻電影的配樂進入一種新的層次，劇中是由歌女Anna之口唱出。此片配樂部分由 Trevor Jones 作曲。

除主演Rufus Sewell比較不為人熟知外，配角陣容甚為可觀，有實力派的威廉·赫特，因《美麗心靈》獲得奧斯卡最佳女配角的珍妮弗·康納利，還有“大腕”之子，因《24》走紅的Kiefer Sutherland。
