A million people, a dozen gangs, and only one law: SURVIVAL!

It’s an urban nightmare come true in Dead End City, as gang warfare rules the streets. Dennis Cole (Pretty Smart) plays a corrupt police officer who allows the gang led by Robert Z’Dar (Maniac Cop) to terrorize the city.

Jack Murphy (Greg Cummins) is a street-tough resident who won’t be bullied. He organizes a vigilante resistance force and prepares to fight for control of the city. Battling against the gang’s non-stop beatings, gunfire and explosions, Murphy leads his guerrilla troop into the sewer tunnels for one, last, futile attempt.

“Colors” meets “Deathwish” …there’s no way out of DEAD END CITY!
