Nomads

"Nomads" is a 1986 American horror film written and directed by John McTiernan. It stars Pierce Brosnan as French anthropologist Jean-Charles Pommier, who settles down in Los Angeles to teach at UCLA but discovers a gang of malevolent street punks who are actually demonic Inuit trickster spirits. The story unfolds through the eyes of Dr. Eileen Flax (Lesley-Anne Down), an ER doctor possessed with Pommier's memories after he dies. As Flax relives Pommier's life, she and his wife Niki (Anna Maria Monticelli) try to escape the spirits that seem to be hunting them.
