After finding his hair follicle at a crime scene, a secret government agency clones the killer in the hopes that the replicant will aid in the search. Although he’s full-grown, the clone (also played by Van Damme) has the emotional and mental capacity of a young child. Soon the naïve replicant begins to have visions of past murders and an abusive mother, leading him to escape and seek the killer on his own.A military commander is sent by an international organization to fight a psychotic dictator who holds a relief team hostage. When the world pays the dictator’s ransom, the commander resigns and decides to take on the villain himself. This action fantasy is based on a popular video game.
