WEDLOCK. 1991
Frank is betrayed after a robbery by his colleagues and sent to a unisex maximum prison where the prisoners have a collar around their necks and if they step out of a boundary line the collars explode or separated by more than 100 yards. Each collar is paired with a partner they do not who with. Frank and a female prisoner who are partnered escape and are chased by his old colleagues to find the missing loot.
This is one of those movies that does rip off the prison restraints from The Running Man and yes you do see two heads explodes, director Lewis Teague does take it further with some tense moments. Rutger Hauer takes the lead of Frank who is betrayed by James Remar and Joan Chen who become like guardian angels and keep him alive so they can get the rest of the diamonds. Mimi Rogers stars as Tracey who seems to have some whit about her and manages to help Frank escape. Early 90s science fiction film that is still enjoyable.
