Can one tough babe with a machine gun and nerves of steel save the world from total annihilation? After a global war has crushed civilization and destroyed democracy in the United States, small-time crook-turned-potential international overlord Ivan Kragov (Orestes Matacena) and his cohorts have made a remarkable discovery -- they've come across the control device that can launch every nuclear warhead in the American military arsenal. Kragov has stumbled upon the secret that could bring the world to its knees, and as he presents his demands to Max (David Fisher), head of the global law enforcement community, Max knows of only one place to turn. Max calls upon Kate Major (Kate Rodger), a beautiful but deadly warrior now behind bars for life, and offers her a deal -- she gets a full pardon if she can steal the launching mechanism away from Kragov before he and his crew can crack the security code. Last Stand also stars Josh Barker and Katerina Brozova.
