Clean Slate (1994)
Directed by Mick Jackson
Pogue is a private eye with a problem: every morning when he wakes up, he has total amnesia, waking up with a 'blank slate'. Since he is in the middle of a hot investigation and has a developing romance, this is less than convenient.

What critics compared Clean Slate to
That's not just because the film's amnesia conceit has been used before in such varied pictures as "Memento," "Clean Slate," "50 First Dates" and "The Bourne Identity."
There’s also a little of the Dana Carvey movie “Clean Slate” and the serious, superlative “Memento” here.
Not every 15 minutes like Guy Pearce did, but at the start of every morning like Dana Carvey suffered in Clean Slate some 8 years ago.
(It's a cut above Clean Slate.) Henry Roth (Sandler) is a Hawaiian veterinarian who spends much of his free time seducing female tourists.
Another movie that comes to mind when discussing Memento is the Dana Carvey comedy Clean Slate.
The amnesia is an interesting touch, but even that isn't anything new (remember the Dana Carvey comedy "Clean Slate"?).
