In the year 2065, a group of desperate criminals, led by Carl Stack (Robert O'Reilly), escape from a penal colony in space and make their way to a waste landfill on the moon run by John Russell (Scott Plank). Wanting passage back to Earth, Stack and his cohorts take Russell hostage and wait for the arrival of a military inspection team, headed up by Lt. Caldecott (Billy Maddox) and Dana Morgan (Jocelyn Seagrave), Russell's former significant other. Stack's original plan is simply to use Russell's safety as a bargaining chip to get a ride back to Earth, but the criminals soon find out there's bigger game afoot at the waste dump than they imagined -- Caldecott has actually arrived on the moon to recover a hidden cache of valuable thermonuclear weapons. The supporting cast includes George Buck Flower and Samantha Phillips. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide.
