When a device more powerful than a nuclear bomb starts a chain reaction that threatens to destroy the entire world, the same scientists responsible for creating it must now figure out how to reign in it's power in this apocalyptic sci-fi action film starring Stephen Baldwin and William B. Davis. Dr. Daniel Gray (Baldwin) works in a top-secret military base alongside some of the greatest scientific minds on the planet. Recently, this crack team of scientists has created the ultimate weapon: something so revolutionary that it could give unlimited power to the military that wields it. But the weapon is experimental and unstable, and the destructive power unleashed when it soon fails threatens to consume entire continents. Now, with time running short and eager weapons dealers determined to unlock the secrets of this diabolical device, the same scientists who created it must shut it down before it's secrets are leaked and more lives are lost.
