Terror goes into overtime. “A superior action thriller loaded with jaw-dropping stunts and special effects.”

Action superstar Jean-Claude Van Damme teams with Powers Boothe in a tension-packed, suspense thriller from the director of Running Scared, The Presidio and Timecop.

Inside the Civic Arena, 17,000 rabid hockey fans gather for the Stanley Cup final game – including the Vice President of the United States. What they don’t know is that someone is planning to have the building, and its inhabitants, blown to bits.

Van Damme portrays Darren McCord, a father who brings his two children to watch the Pittsburgh Penguins versus the Chicago Blackhawks. But when his daughter is suddenly taken hostage by terrorists, their special night out turns into a deadly race against time. Her sinister captor (Boothe) is demanding delivery of a billion dollars from the U.S. Treasury by game’s end. With thousands of lives at stake, Van Damme frantically sets a plan in motion to rescue his daughter and abort the impending explosion… before the final buzzer.
