A chemical spill has caused the occupants of Beverly Hills to be forcibly evacuated. A retiring football player left behind, finds that the toxic gas emulating from the spill is a bogus front for a heist set up by fired police officers out to plunder the city of all its valuables. Finding himself siding with a corrupt cop who was once apart of the plan until he discovered the city's mayor had just been blown away, by one of the chief crooks in charge. Now both on the run with no help in sight...both must do whatever they can to stop these murderous looters. Written by ???? |

Did You Know?
Trivia | Columbia Pictures was originally set to release the film on May 10, 1991 but ultimately delayed its release and ultimately received a small, and brief, run five months later. There were rumors that Orion Pictures had previously bought the distribution rights but sold it to Columbia due to the former studio's impending bankruptcy, with no legitimate sources to back this claim. However, Orion and Columbia shared a distribution deal with the film's production company, Nelson Entertainment, so the idea that Orion considered releasing it is not outside the realm of possibility.
