How do you find a killer that can change identities by just touching another person? What if an ancient "Fallen Angel" was living among us killing and causing havoc with total immunity? Denzel Washington plays a homicide detective that becomes the hunted in this supernatural thriller that will leave you guessing until the very end. In DVD format the chilling sounds/ voices of Dolby 5.1 surround will make you wish you had left the lights on. Great supporting cast with Goodman's humor and Sutherland's serious edge.
