Dark City
1998movie
Director Alex Proyas' 1998 feature "Dark City" builds upon the menacing urban landscape that he created for his 1994 comic book adaptation of "The Crow.""Dark City" is often compared to the sci-fi juggernaut "The Matrix," as both films explore similar themes of identity and false realities, although the more commercially successful "Matrix" film came out a year after Proyas'. That's not all these two films share, as the Wachowskis actually shot some scenes of "The Matrix — like the opening roof-top chase — on sets that were created for "Dark City" (per What Culture).
Definitely one of the coolest movies, I fire it up every once in a while and the mood and style of the film just pull you right in.
