dark be right represent this be a dark movie with dark people and dark building where there be no daylight until the very end of the story . it a combination sci fi or film noir and take place back in the 1940s or 50 in some big city . it alien nonsense stuff about people memory take from them so that the alien can learn enough about earth being to eventually take over their soul because their own race be die and blah and blah and blah . you have see it before . however and the story take a back seat to the set design and special effect and both of which be unique . i know of no other movie and before or since ( it be eight year ) and which show a city literally re shape itself each night with building expand and rise and fall and etc . the visuals throughout this movie be fabulous and the sound that go with it be good and too . there be very little profanity in this movie but it still an ugly and sordid story and not always fun to watch even though it keep your attention and at least with me draw you back for multiple viewing . there be a magnetism to this film . this be the only video i get rid twice and re acquire it both time . a i say and dark city keep draw me back . eerie .
