What is Fear X about?

When his wife is killed in a seemingly random incident, Harry, prompted by mysterious visions, journeys to discover the true circumstances surrounding her murder.

Fear X is a 2003 psychological thriller film directed by Nicolas Winding Refn in his English-language debut. The first film to be produced from one of Hubert Selby Jr.'s original screenplays, its eventual box-office failure would force Refn's production company Jang Go Star into bankruptcy. Refn's financial recovery was documented in the 2006 documentary Gambler.
