Short description

A law student takes a job as a night watchman at a morgue and begins to discover clues that implicate him as the suspect in a series of murders.

What's left behind the scenes

Approximately 8 minutes into the film, Martin notices a photograph on the watchman's desk. It is a picture of Lewis Powell (1844-1865), a conspirator and accomplice of John Wilkes Booth (1838-1865), the assassin of Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865).
The management of "Miramax" wanted to reshoot some scenes with Ewan McGregor, as his character did not appeal to the audience during preview screenings, but the actor refused.
