Hackers
Description
"Succeeds at just about everything The Net failed to." — Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
Boot up for suspense, action and high-powered excitement as the rebels of the information age fight an electrifying battle in this sharp, cutting-edge adventure. At stake is their freedom, their pride and perhaps even the planet.
While practicing the tricks of the trade, a neophyte "hacker" accomplishes the nearly impossible: he hacks the highly secured Gibson computer at the Ellingson Mineral Corporation. But in doing so, he unknowingly taps into a high-tech embezzling scheme which is masked by a virus that could cause a horrific environmental disaster. In the flash of a nanosecond, the young hacker and his pals are targeted for the crime by the FBI and Ellingson's deranged computer whiz, "The Plague" (Fisher Stevens). When they discover the terrifying extend of The Plague's warped plans, the group pools their techno skills together to launch a massive cyberspace attack, one that will hopefully clear their names and prevent an ecological disaster of global proporations.
Pulsating with non-stop action and nail-biting tension, Hackers is a hip, fast-paced spectacle the American Urban Network calls "an experience you will never forget!"
