Countdown

1996 · 90 min

A ticking-clock chase through a wintry city, all frantic phone calls and looming explosions, built for pulpy tension rather than depth.

Keoni Waxman
Genres
Thriller, Action
Overview
Seattle's been given a surprise Christmas present that's set to explode. Psychotic serial bomber Chris Murdock has an obsession with an old girlfriend and a sinister plan of revenge for the FBI. With only 72 hours to find the hidden "gift", agent Sara Davis frantically tracks the twisted bomber to prevent the meltdown of a city held hostage.
