Short description
An undercover cop in a not-too-distant future becomes involved with a dangerous new drug and begins to lose his own identity as a result.
What's left behind the scenes
- One version of the script was written by Charlie Kaufman. However, his script was rejected at one stage of the project's development.
- In the early 1990s, Terry Gilliam wanted to direct the film.
- When Fred goes to the liquor store, you can notice the "St. Ubik" brand. This is a reference to Philip K. Dick's novel "Ubik".
- Philip K. Dick dedicated the novel of the same name to deceased and seriously ill friends who were drug addicts, as evidenced by the credits at the end of the film.
- When Arcturus sits on stage awaiting the announcement of his performance, one of the guises the suit takes on is that of Philip K. Dick.
- The film is based on Philip K. Dick's novel "A Scanner Darkly" (1977).
- When Arctor undergoes the second stage of testing, the marking 'V K mk1' can be seen on a special machine. The letters 'V K' stand for Voight-Kampff. A test by the same name was used in Philip K. Dick's book Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, where it was used to determine whether the subject being tested was a human or an android.
- While working on the book, Philip K. Dick drew upon his own experiences with drug use.
