Plot.
Supernatural forces hover over the courtroom in this devilish drama adapted
from the novel by Andrew Neiderman. Attorney Kevin Lomax (Keanu Reeves)
doesn't heed the Bible-based warnings of his mother (Judith Ivey), who views
New York City as the dwelling place of demons. Instead, he leaves
Gainesville, Florida, with his wife Mary Ann (Charlize Theron) to put his
legalistic skills to the test at a leading Manhattan law firm run by John
Milton (Al Pacino). It all goes smoothly with Milton urging them to stay,
putting Kevin on a $400-per-hour salary, and moving the couple into a
luxurious apartment in his own building on Fifth Avenue where Mary Ann
falls under the influence of neighbor Jackie (Tamara Tunie). After Kevin
defends a weird animal sacrificer (Delroy Lindo, uncredited), he moves up
to an important case with an apparent murderer, real-estate tycoon Alexander
Cullen (Craig T. Nelson). Ignored by Kevin, the troubled Mary Ann has some
disturbing experiences, verging on the occult, while Kevin, at work, becomes
attracted to redhead Christabella (Connie Neilsen). Dazzled by his entrance
into paradise, Kevin doesn't grasp who handed him this Big-Apple success.
Could it be Satan? The film features demonic creatures by Rick Baker.
Cameos (Senator Alfonse D'Amato, Don King, others) add to the ambiance
of ambition and power in the canyons of Manhattan.
