Strange Days is a 1995 Cyberpunk Science Fiction movie written by James Cameron and Jay Cocks, directed by Kathryn Bigelow and starring Ralph Fiennes, Angela Bassett and Juliette Lewis.Lenny Nero (Fiennes) is a grungy ex-cop eking out a lonely, miserable existence in the urban nightmare that is 1999 Los Angeles by dealing in dreams. He sells illegal "SQUID" recordings that allow the user to directly experience moments from people's lives as if they were actually there, living every sight, sound, thought and feeling that the person doing the recording experiences. This allows the user to experience anything - sex, drugs, and even death. Although charming and suave on the surface, Lenny is deeply unhappy and pathetic, addicted to his own product, and desperately reliving the happy moments from his long-dead relationship with his ex-girlfriend Faith (Lewis), a rising punk musician whom he saved from the gutter only for her to discard him when she began to make it big. The only two of his few remaining friends who don't regard him as a washed-up loser are Mace (Bassett), a bodyguard and chauffeur, and Max (Tom Sizemore), a paranoid and cynical PI with ambiguous morality.Lenny's life, such as it is, begins to completely fall apart a few days before the millennium celebrations, when he anonymously receives a snuff recording that depicts the agonizing rape-murder of a prostitute he is acquainted with, whom he encountered hours before her death. Because she attempted to warn him of something concerning Faith, Lenny begins to suspect that Faith is the next target...

Cruel and Unusual Death: Iris's is exceptionally cruel. She gets chased, tied to a doorknob, stripped and blindfolded, and then her attacker outfits her with a squid, then rapes and strangles her so that she gets doubly humiliated by being made to feel everything he's feeling.

Chekhov's Gun: A very subtle one. Lenny and Tick's conversation after the opening wire-trip sequence casually mentions that the Squid recorder survived the fall and its recording is undamaged. It's left to the viewer to realise that the same will be true of Max's recording after his fall.

Ax-Crazy: Officer Steckler is clearly not a very well-adjusted individual. Neither is Max, it turns out. Lampshaded when Lenny, during his profile of the killer, points out that by his actions in raping and murdering a woman and forcing her to experience what he's experiencing as he does so, the killer is clearly insane but staged the crime to look like a random thrill-seeking sex crime because he thinks that he isn't.

comment
Zeerust: Leaving aside the fact that SQUID hasn't made an appearance yet, some of the film's fashions look pretty absurd, and there's also a moment with a voice-transcribing answer machine that raises an eyebrow these days. Also, the kind of outspoken gangster rap that the film portrays as part of a major social movement had gone out of style by 2000. Nor was Los Angeles quite the borderline-anarchic urban warzone the movie depicts it as either. Averted with Faith's grunge-style rock, as it was still popular on the underground scene she cavorts in for long after 2000, though by 1995 after Kurt Cobain's death, people were tired of the nihilism, and grunge stopped being a mainstream force as music really experimented with different styles throughout the late '90s.

Let's Get Dangerous!
 Strange Days / int_562abd51
comment
Let's Get Dangerous!: Lenny spends most of the movie as an ineffectual, much-disdained Butt-Monkey punching bag. Then, towards the end, he seems to remember he used to be a cop and decides to remind everyone else of this. Firstly, when approaching one of the mooks who'd previously used him as a punching bag, he delivers his usual smarmy "Can't we talk about this like two reasonable human beings?" Catchphrase — and doesn't even give the guy a chance to respond before punching him out, handcuffing him, and taking his pistol. Secondly, when fighting Max, he not only holds his own against a complete psychopath but manages to win out by pulling a knife that had been stabbed into his own back out and cutting his tie — which was the only thing keeping Max from plummeting to his death. Also, we see him worrying before about his tie when he was going to a probable trap. It turns out to save his life. Additionally, in a deleted scene, he is shown as able to manipulate his way into gaining exclusive passes to the giant Final Boss party in under 5 minutes, smiling the whole time.

I Am Not Left-Handed: Lenny pretends to be a coward and a bad fighter, but a clue he's not is when he tells the larger bouncer not to hit him in the face — he can take a body blow but doesn't want any physical evidence of being hit. Later, when he needs it, he takes the bouncer out quickly and efficiently.

 Strange Days / int_5a3b8032
comment
The Unreveal: Lenny assures Mace that getting into an exclusive New Year's party is "what he does." In the next scene, they're already at the party. The scene where we find out how they got inside was left on the cutting room floor and later included on the DVD.

Government Conspiracy: Subverted. Max claims that there's a government conspiracy being enforced by "death squads," but he just made the whole thing up to throw Lenny off the scent. It's a much smaller and more private crime.

Forced to Watch: Iris's killer uses a SQUID recorder with a signal splitter to force her to see and experience her own rape and murder from his perspective. It later looks like the same fate befell Faith until it turns out that it was (initially) consensual.

Cassette Futurism: The film takes place in a dystopian society that was only a few years away from the time of filming. The future aesthetic is mostly conveyed with loud, shiny clothing and punk stylings amongst the hip and degenerate crowd. Information is distributed by hand on discs, without any mention of the internet.

Murderer P.O.V.: Iris's rape and murder. Subverted and made creepier in that the murderer has the victim share the POV of herself getting raped and murdered, and the whole other layer of the murderer sending Lenny the tape so he can share the victim's POV of the murderer's POV of this. Total Nightmare Fuel and almost unwatchable.

Mind Rape: Done to Iris by Max as she is raped (in the standard way) and murdered. He forces her not only to see everything he sees but to feel everything he's feeling, such as the joy he's getting out of raping her and her own fear amplified through his heightened sexual arousal. It's so upsetting that simply playing the recording back causes Lenny to be violently sick all over the pavement.

There's some subtle foreshadowing, as he lets the bouncer hit him anywhere but the face — because he can take a body blow easily.

Failed Future Forecast: When it was written it was set 20 Minutes into the Future so it didn't start as an alternate history, but the turn of the millennium came and went by without the societal upheavals depicted in the film. A news broadcast mentions that predictions for the new millennium include Turkey recognizing the Armenian genocide, and the United States being on its second female president by 2025. Neither came close to coming true.

These Gloves Are Made for Killin': Lenny unwittingly watches a Snuff Film in the form of a recorded memory of an intruder putting on latex gloves. After the intruder starts to lock pick a door, he assumes he's just watching a typical breaking and entering crime until the intruder breaks into Iris' hotel room and brutally rapes and murders her. Later in the film, Lenny finds Philo Gant comatose from an amplified SQUID recording. He is then confronted by Max who is now wearing a pair of the same kind of gloves the intruder that raped and murdered Iris was wearing. Confirming that he and the intruder in the Snuff Film are the same person.

Firstly, when approaching one of the mooks who'd previously used him as a punching bag, he delivers his usual smarmy "Can't we talk about this like two reasonable human beings?" Catchphrase — and doesn't even give the guy a chance to respond before punching him out, handcuffing him, and taking his pistol.

Insane Equals Violent: Despite the killer's horrific crimes, one character suggests that he may have a brain tumor interfering with his SQUID signal, bringing into question whether he's actually in control of his actions at all, as tumors can put pressure on brain structures and disrupt their ability to function. A tumor in the occipital lobe, however, is likely to only disrupt visual processing, as the character described.

Lodged Blade Removal: During a brutal fight at the end with the killer ( Max), Lenny gets stabbed in the back before throwing the villain over a balcony; the killer grabs Lenny's tie to attempt a Taking You with Me, but Lenny yanks the knife out of himself and slices the tie with it, sending Max plummeting to certain death.

Titled After the Song: The song coming from Tick's van when Lenny, Mace, and Max visit him on New Year's Eve is a cover of The Doors song "Strange Days", from Strange Days.

Pet the Dog: Lenny isn't a bad guy, but he is presented as a pretty scummy, sleazy loser for a good part of the movie until we finally learn why Mace is so devoted to him against all odds. He was the cop who comforted and took care of her son after his father murdered a man while he was in the house, apparently even going so far as to shelter him in another room so he wouldn't see his father being dragged off in handcuffs. Considering that Lenny is a white cop, Mace and her family are black and working-class, and racial tensions and police mistrust are that high in LA, this is not insignificant. Lenny's gift for his amputee techie friend (a SQUID recording of running along a beach) also counts, though it also goes toward showing how people can develop an unhealthy fixation on SQUIDing what they can never have.
