  WHAT:        WORLD PREMIERE OF COLUMBIA PICTURES "Identity"

"Identity" is a daring new thriller from director James Mangold, (the writer/director of "Girl, Interrupted," "Cop Land" and "Heavy") and producer Cathy Konrad ("Scream 1, 2 & 3," "Cop Land," "Girl, Interrupted"), featuring an all-star ensemble cast including John Cusack, Ray Liotta, Amanda Peet, Alfred Molina, Jake Busey, Clea DuVall and Rebecca De Mornay.

Caught in a savage rainstorm, ten travelers are forced to seek refuge at a strange desert motel. They soon realize they've found anything but shelter. There is a killer among them and, one by one, they are murdered. As the storm rages on and the dead begin to outnumber the living, one thing becomes clear: Each of them was drawn to the motel, not by accident or circumstance, but by forces beyond imagination, forces that promise anyone who survives a mind- bending and terrifying destiny.
