Release Info:

Release Date: August 23, 1996 (USA) | Length: 94 min | Genre: Action, Sci-Fi, Thriller | MPAA Rating: Rated PG-13 for combat action violence and brief strong language. | Note(s): IMDB wrongly credits Brentis Jarryn Schaeffer (the Olde Miss football player) as the Brent Schaefer (who plays the Communications Officer) in this film, but they are not the same person. The football player would have been 10 years old when this film was released and in the films ending credits Brent's last name is spelled with only one "f". The actors film credits appear under both names on IMDB and are coincidentally all movies starring Mario Van Peebles.
