Description

Every 5,000 years, a door opens between the dimensions. In one dimension lies the universe and all of its multitude of varied life forms. In another exists an element made not of earth, air, fire or water, but anti-energy, anti-life. This thing, this darkness, waits patiently at the threshold of the universe for an opportunity to extinguish all life and all light. Every 5,000 years, the universe needs a hero, and in New York City of the 23rd Century, a good hero is hard to find. The film stars Bruce Willis, Gary Oldman, Ian Holm and Milla Jovovich.
