A soldier convicted for murdering his commanding officer is dumped and left to die on a prison island inhabited by two camps of convicts.
In 2022, the military Robbins kills his superior and is sentenced to a maximum-security prison. He arrives at the prison and soon has friction with the sadistic warden. He is dumped in the island Absolom, where he meets "The Outsiders" and their cruel leader Walter Marek that offers a position in his staff to Robbins. He does not accept and has to flee from the Outsiders. He is rescued by the group led by The Father and befriends the young Casey. But the warden promotes confrontation of the gangs to kill as most as possible and Robbins uses his military knowledge to help his group expecting to flee from Absolom.—Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Robbins is sentenced to prison for the assassination of his general officer, a prison you leave only when you die. Since nobody ever leaves the prison, nobody knows what the prison is like. The prison manager realizes this and buys himself an island playground called "Absolom," where the worst prisoners are free to create an isolated barbaric society, and where the strongest men rule...a living hell. Robbins is sent to Absolom after he almost kills the prison manager.—[email protected]
In the not-too-distant future, Capt. J.T. Robbins (Liotta) is sent to prison for killing his superior. The corporately (and corruptly) run prison causes Robbins to rebel against the Warden (Lerner). His rebellion only gets him sent to the most maximum security facility there is - Absolom. The worst hardcore criminals are just dumped onto the island Absolom to live or die as they can. The island is patrolled by heavily armed helicopters and fenced by impenetrable sea defenses. Two different societies have formed over the years; an evil 'empire' run by Walter Marek (Wilson) that is conflicting with the other, more pacific, group run by The Father (Henriksen). Resources are kept scarce by the warden as a game to keep the population down by destroying themselves. Who will our hardcore Captain fit in with the best? Can anyone escape from Absolom?—Bill Burkett
It is the 21st century, and our hero goes to Absolom because he murdered someone. Absolom is a prison-island where criminals leave alone, away from the rest of the world, and none has ever escaped.—Chris Makrozahopoulos <[email protected]>
