Split Second
In a flooded future London, Detective Harley Stone hunts a serial killer who murdered his partner and has haunted him ever since — but he soon discovers what he is hunting might not be human.
Why it matters
A grimy, rain-drenched sci-fi horror hybrid where a haunted detective hunts an elusive, nonhuman predator stalking a flooded London of 2008.
- Rutger Hauer’s gruff charisma anchors the film’s tonal shifts between buddy-cop banter and apocalyptic dread.
- Production design wears its Blade Runner influences proudly, giving the submerged city a moody, neon-lit decay.
- Creature effects blend xenomorph menace with Venom-like slickness—practical and CG mix that still holds up for creature feature fans.
- Tonally uneven but absurdly entertaining, perfect for viewers who savor genre mashups and cult 90s sci-fi horror oddities.
