Synopsis
In New York, computer programmer Paul Hackett (Griffin Dunne) goes on a date with Marcy (Rosanna Arquette), a woman he meets in a coffee shop, and ends up in her spacious loft in Soho, in lower Manhattan. There Paul meets Marcy's disturbing roommate, artist Kiki (Linda Fiorentino), and the night takes an increasingly strange and threatening turn. Paul then decides to return home to the Upper East Side, but it's no easy task. In a seemingly endless series of strange and dangerous encounters as the night progresses, Paul begins to fear he will never return home.
