The Hidden

In the opening sequence, Jack DeVries executes a daring robbery at a Wells Fargo bank in Los Angeles. The heist turns deadly as multiple security guards are brutally murdered amidst the chaos.

Following the robbery, DeVries embarks on a reckless escape, leading to a high-speed chase with the Los Angeles Police Department. His actions result in a dangerous situation where he forces innocent drivers off the road, leading to the tragic deaths of two bystanders.

Detective Sgt. Thomas Beck begins his investigation into DeVries, interviewing neighbors who portray DeVries as a gentle man. This sets the stage for the complexities of the case as Beck starts piecing together DeVries' actions.

DeVries, in a desperate attempt to escape, crashes through a police blockade supervised by Beck. Despite being shot multiple times, he makes a last stand by throwing bags of stolen cash at the astonished officers before ultimately being shot down.

At the hospital, Beck and his partner are informed that DeVries is not expected to survive the night. This revelation causes tension as Willis highlights the recent violent acts that have unfolded over two weeks, suggesting DeVries' unstable nature.

FBI Special Agent Lloyd Gallagher arrives at the police station, revealing that he has been tracking DeVries from Seattle for the past month. The need to join forces shifts Beck's investigation into a broader context.

In a shocking twist, DeVries awakens in the hospital and disconnects himself from life support. He then expels an alien life-form into a comatose patient, Jonathan P. Miller, before collapsing, marking the beginning of a new chapter in the chaos.

After the alien entity is expelled, Jonathan P. Miller awakens, seemingly transformed and exhibiting violent tendencies. This sets off a chain of events where Miller begins committing ruthless acts, starting with the murder of a music store owner.

Detective Beck struggles with issuing an alert on Miller as his criminal history appears innocent at first. However, after a female witness identifies Miller as the murderer, Beck is forced to take action and issue an APB.

Miller's pattern of violence escalates as he seeks out stolen luxury cars, mirroring DeVries' initial actions. Beck and Gallagher start to question whether they truly understand Miller's psyche and how it connects to DeVries.

Miller's crime spree continues when he steals a red Ferrari and commits further murders at a dealership. This rampage intensifies the urgency of Beck and Gallagher's investigation as they race against time.

In the midst of the chaos, Detective Beck's home life reveals a stark contrast to his professional turmoil. His interactions with his wife Barbara and daughter Juliet highlight his struggle with the gravity of the unfolding events.

The tension culminates in a harrowing hunt through a strip club where Miller, now a new host for the alien, faces off against law enforcement. The ensuing chaos shows the deadly capabilities of the alien entity as it transfers between hosts.

In a climactic turn, a press conference turns deadly, revealing the alien entity's true intentions. The confrontation raises questions about the nature of identity and morality as the characters fight to understand their own humanity amidst the alien threat.

As the film concludes, Detective Beck faces a profound encounter that forces him to reconsider the essence of identity. The story leaves viewers pondering the boundaries between alien and human, challenging the very notion of what it means to connect.
