Overview
In a dystopian 2021, Johnny is a data trafficker who has an implant that allows him to securely store data too sensitive for regular computer networks. On one delivery run, he accepts a package that not only exceeds the implant’s safety limits—and will kill him if the data is not removed in time—but also contains information far more important and valuable than he had ever imagined. On a race against time, he must avoid the assassins sent to kill him and remove the data before it, too, ends his life.

Viewing Notes
Fun to see this anachronism on screen for the first time in forever! Dina Meyer is easily the best thing in this! Most of the rest of the acting is so stilted. Such an interesting cast! Takeshi Kitano, Udo Kier, Ice-T, Henry Rollins, Dolph Lundgren, Keanu Reeves and Dina Meyer!
The artist-turned-director Robert Luongo came to ISU when I was an art student there and gave a lecture and presented some of his work, including his videos for Megadeath’s Peace Sells and New Order’s Bizarre Love Triangle.
