Synopsis by Fred Beldin

A video game designer hacks into a bank's computer system and skims money from various corporate accounts. Though she has three partners in this crime, Carly (Diana Reis) decides to cut them out of the deal, and hides the location of the money within the software of her newest game, Thrillkill. When she is murdered by a mysterious third party, her jilted partners are determined to find the three million dollars before they too are laid to rest. Carly's sister Bobbie (Gina Massey), a flight attendant, happens to be in town and becomes their main target. Luckily, a friendly detective named Frank Gillette (Robin Ward) steps in to keep Bobbie safe and try to unravel the clues that Carly left before her death. All they know is that it has something to do with Thrillkill, but time is running out. The body count rises and double-crosses become triple-crosses as the thieves try to find the money before Bobbie and Frank do. But Frank isn't exactly the man he claims to be, and he may be leading Bobbie into a trap for his own financial gain.
