Fortress (1993)

Director Stuart Gordon has seen the future, and he uses his fast-forward vision to creep the hell out of a rapt, anxious audience in Fortress (1993). America has been overtaken by huge corporations that monitor and restrict the most personal and private of human endeavors. Only one kid is allowed per couple, and if yours dies, tough luck. Don’t try to conceive another, or it’s off to prison--the Fortress. Brainscanners, cunning robots, death rays, and bombs implanted in every inmate’s body keep the confined population in line. There is no hope in even dreaming that escape is possible. But one man refuses to submit to the tyranny of his mechanized captors. With the aid of his good woman, he vows to make a run for freedom.
