Christopher Lambert stars as Lou seemingly invincible serial killer (He has just killed his daughter's step-father for molesting her) who along with a group play a battle royale, in which the prisoners are all forced to fight out to the death, until 3 are last standing which then get a million dollar prize. Among the prisoners include genre faces such as Return Of The Living Dead's Thom Mathews, Karate Kid II's Yuji Okumoto, Streets Of Fire's Deborah Van Valkenburgh and Pyun regular Tina Cote. Ice-T is the prison warden who is also probably going to die as well, what transpires is a downbeat yet at times very enjoyable Battle Royale scenario that is consistently watchable enough to be considered one of Pyun's better efforts. Also it helps that the cast has somewhat of a coolness factor. However let it be said that the bleached hair look is not to Lambert's advantage.
