Storyline
In 2012, amid economic chaos and high unemployment, Americans watch by
the millions as criminals with life sentences race armored cars on
Terminal Island. Two-thirds of the combatants die but the winner may
earn his freedom. On the day he loses his job, steelworker Jensen Ames
is arrested for his wife's murder. Sent to Terminal Island, he's offered
an out by the steely and manipulative Warden Hennessey - race as the
popular mask-wearing (but now dead) champion, Frankenstein, or rot in
prison. Jensen makes the bargain. As the three-stage race approaches, he
realizes that the whole thing may be a set up - can an anonymous man
behind a mask get revenge and win his release? Written by
