Product Description:

Two Arkansas fire fighters find a map that leads to hidden gold stashed in an abandoned East St. Louis tenement. But while searching for the loot, the two accidentally witness a drug-related murder. Suddenly they find themselves trapped in an urban nightmare, hunted by a vicious gang of streetwise killers that take no prisoners.

Plot Synopsis:

Vince and Don, two hick firemen from Arkansas, head for East St. Louis after being tipped off about some stolen gold buried in an abandoned factory building. While searching for the loot, Vince and Don collide with black gang members who are in the process of executing one of their rivals. When the gang goes after them, Vince and Don manage to keep the youths at bay by taking the gang leader's brother hostage. Trapped inside the ruined factory, Vince and Don, spurred by greed, continue to search for the gold, while outside the gang members arm themselves with high-tech weapons and gear up for the violent and inevitable confrontation.

• Filmed in DeLuxe color in Atlanta and Memphis (which were used to simulate the East St. Louis setting).
