Description: Jack Conrad, awaiting execution in a corrupt Salvadoran prison, is purchased by a wealthy television producer. He is taken to a remote island in the South Pacific along with nine other condemned criminals from prisons worldwide. They are offered a chance to avoid the death penalty and win freedom, along with a large sum of cash, by participating in a deadly fight that will be broadcast live over the Internet.
Each contestant has a bomb strapped to their ankle, set to detonate after a 30-hour countdown or a 10-second delay if the pin is pulled. The sole survivor will have the bomb removed, gain freedom, and receive the cash prize. The producer, Ian Breckel, aims to surpass the Super Bowl’s 40 million viewers with this online spectacle.
As the broadcast continues, FBI agents uncover Conrad’s true identity as Jack Riley, a former Delta Force operative captured during a black ops mission in El Salvador. His girlfriend, Sarah, becomes aware of the situation and watches the broadcast from her workplace.
Contestants form alliances and use deceit to eliminate each other. Conrad infiltrates the broadcast tower, contacts Sarah, and provides the island’s coordinates before being forced to flee. Ultimately, Conrad faces off against the remaining contestants, leading to a tense final showdown. A helicopter delivers a shotgun to one of his rivals, intensifying the deadly pursuit.
