[edit] Plot

FBI agent Jake Malloy (Sylvester Stallone) just can't nail a serial killer who's been targeting cops.

The killer has already killed nine cops. Not only does the killer despise policemen, but also he carries a grudge against Malloy for pursuing him during a string of prostitute murders four years ago.

The killer finally decides to hit Malloy where it hurts, killing one of his pals on the force and brutally killing Malloy's fiancee Mary (Dina Meyer).

The grief sends Malloy off the deep end and into the bottle, forcing his concerned friend Detective Hendricks (Charles S. Dutton) to sign Malloy up at a remote detox clinic in the icy wilderness of Wyoming.

The clinic specializes in rehabilitating alcoholic cops. But the killer murders a patient and assumes the patient's identity at the clinic.

While Malloy participates in group therapy sessions, the killer starts killing the patients. Among the endangered patients are suicidal Jaworski (Jeffrey Wright), cynical Slater (Christopher Fulford), arrogant Noah (Robert Patrick), fearful Conner (Sean Patrick Flanery), religious Jones (Courtney B. Vance) and about a dozen others from the force.

One by one, the patients start falling prey to the killer's knowledge of their weaknesses and, starting with the clinic's director, Doc (Kris Kristofferson), the killer starts targeting the staff as well.

Malloy must pull himself together and end the killing spree.
