Wimpy young executive Michael is about to get pulverized by a jealous boyfriend in a bar when a handsome, mysterious stranger steps in—and then disappears. Later that night, Michael runs into a stranger on a pier, who wheedles his way into Michael's life and turns it upside down.
A predatory, magnetic charm radiates from the stranger who systematically dismantles a mild-mannered man's orderly life. This sleek nineties thriller captures the dangerous allure of a bad influence through hypnotic, unsettling chemistry.
