Dark City, combining the neo-noir and science fiction genres, did not receive the attention it deserved when it was released, much like many other works that boldly blended different genres to create a new fusion. Over time, the film developed a loyal fan base and became a cult classic. It follows the protagonist, John Murdoch, who has lost his memory. Murdoch finds himself as the prime suspect in a series of gruesome murders and is pursued by both the police and a mysterious group known as "The Strangers." He struggles to regain his lost memory while unravelling the dark secrets of the enigmatic city he encounters.
