Mickey Rourke and Robert De Niro star in this psychological horror written and directed by Alan Parker. It seems like a straightforward case when New York City private investigator Harry Angel (Rourke) is hired by Louis Cyphre (De Niro) to find missing singer Johnny Favourite. However, before long the trail has led him to Epiphany Proudfoot (Lisa Bonet) and a mysterious occult world in which everyone he questions seems to wind up dead. No matter what he finds out along the way, nothing will prepare Harry for what awaits him at the end of his quest.
