The film stars Kiefer Sutherland as Detective Mickey Hayden.
== Plot == A troubled cop makes a discovery that really has him worried in this thriller. Police detective Mickey Hayden (Kiefer Sutherland) is ordered to take a new look at a case he'd worked on ten years ago. A brilliant but demented serial killer known as Jabberwocky went on a killing spree before dropping out of sight. Hayden was never able to track him down and the disappointment has left him with more than his share of emotional scars, resulting in alcoholism. After a decade of silence, Jabberwocky strikes again, sending the police a note suggesting Hayden be put back on his case. But this time around, Hayden notices something different as he investigates the killings; when he comes in contact with the evidence, he has troubling psychic visions that tell him more about the murders than he ever wanted to know.
