Ron Perlman (BLADE II) stars in this apocalyptic actioner as St. Joy, the maniacal leader of a doomsday cult that is bent on terrorizing the United States. Planning to steal a deadly biological weapon and decimate a large portion of the population, St. Joy and his followers take over a high security bank in Los Angeles where the weapon is being held. Unfortunately, an earthquake rips through LA at the same time, trapping the cult inside the bank along with Julie (Eleniak) and Alex, an FBI agent. Soon, the military gets wind of the situation and General Wolf (Dryer) has planes at the ready to destroy the bank and everything in it so that the virus cannot escape. Knowing that staying inside will mean death for them and possibly a good portion of the United States, Julie and Alex try desperately to escape the clutches of St. Joy and the crumbling building trapping them.

What could have been an otherwise passable couple of hours in the hands of Joel Silver, is instead reducted to crumbs of atrocity thanks to it's unethused script, ridiculous looking CGI and terribly annoying onslaught of one-liners and black humour
