Fortress is a 1992 science fiction film directed by Stuart Gordon and shot at Warner Brothers Movie World in Queensland, Australia. The story takes place in a dystopian future. The main character in the movie, John Henry Brennick (Christopher Lambert) and his wife Karen B. Brennick (Loryn Locklin) are sent to a maximum security prison because they are expecting a second child, which is against strict one-child policies. It was followed by a sequel, Fortress 2: Re-Entry in 1999.
In a dystopian 2017, ex-army officer John Henry Brennick (Christopher Lambert) and his wife Karen (Loryn Locklin) are attempting to cross the US-Canada border to Vancouver to have a second child. Strict one-child policies forbid a second pregnancy, even after their firstborn has died, so Karen wears a magnetic vest to trick the security scanners. A guard notices the trick and raises the alarm.
Brennick is caught, believing Karen to have escaped, and sentenced to 31 years in a private maximum security prison run by the "MenTel Corporation". To maintain discipline all inmates are implanted with "Intestinators" which induce severe pain or death, for serious infractions, as a form of physical control and mental conditioning. The prison is co-run by Director Poe (Kurtwood Smith), who oversees Zed-10, a computer that monitors day-to-day activities and represents MenTel. The prison itself is located underground, in the middle of the desert, inside a deep pit that can only be crossed by a retractable bridge, while the prisoners are kept in overcrowded cells secured by laser walls.

Sinopsis: Un curso completo de niños de una escuelita rural de la Australia profunda es secuestrado con maestra y todo. Los autores del delito son unos tipos muy rudos, todos con caretas de animales salvo el líder que porta una de Papá Noel (que me cagó la infancia). Los niños y la maestra son encerrados en una cueva sin comida ni agua por tiempo indefinido. Giros inesperados, y una resolución que no defrauda ni por un segundo. Telefilme producido por el viejo HBO Olé que repitieron hasta el cansancio en los 90s en esa misma señal, cuando arrancaba la televisión por cable en estas tierras. Gema invaluable. Tiene Subtítulos en español. En las tildes salen simbolitos raros, pero no jodas, se entiende perfecto. ¡Que os disfruten!
All the sorrows that you’ve known
All the wars that you wage
I’m bearing arms against your own
As you throw your life away
(Chorus)
The peace is broken
You did it all yourself with you and no one else to blame
The peace is broken
The trouble in your heart is self imposed and hard to tame
The peace is broken
Oh can’t you see what you’ve become?
As you crawl to your own grave
When everything is said and don
You will find that it’s too late
(Chorus)
All the sorrows that you’ve known, all the wars that you wage
Lost to every worry every sorrow in your heart
Everything is blurry now you’ve torn your world apart
None of this will matter, not tomorrow just today
Don’t let this moment slip away
(Chorus)
