Black Rainbow (Showtime Monday at 1:30 a.m.) Mike Hodges’ 1989 psychic-thriller with ecological undertones is one of the most original independent films of recent years. Rosanna Arquette, in her best role to date, is a commanding presence as a young medium who develops terrifying powers of prophecy. With Tom Hulce and Jason Robards.

After Dark, My Sweet (TMC Monday at 2:15 a.m.) For a look at how well Jim Thompson’s spare, brackish stories of lovers, losers and sociopathic double-crossers update, try this stunning 1990 surprise. Like a tumbleweed, Kid Collins (Jason Patric) blows into the path of a recent widow (Rachel Ward), whose mocking edges sharpen with every bottle of wine. With Bruce Dern.

Lucky Luciano (TNT Tuesday at 7:20 p.m.) Francesco Rosi’s engrossing 1973 English-language production, with the Italian director’s characteristic convoluted structuring, expansive scope and easy elegance of style.

Delusion (Cinemax Tuesday at 8 p.m.) Carl Colpaert’s stylish and amusing 1991 B picture finds a young businessman (Jim Metzler) driving down a desert highway when he gives a ride to a disheveled couple (Jennifer Rubin, Kyle Secor), who have just wrecked their car. A nifty genre film.
