Line 1: {{~~trope~~work}} A 2003 movie starring [[Jean -Claude Van Damme]], and quite possibly one of his darker works. Kyle Le Blanc (Van Damme) is an American working and living with his wife in Russia. After his wife is raped and killed at home, and the criminal gets off due to lack of evidence; a vengeful Kyle shoots the man outside the courthouse in turn. As a result, he gets sentenced to a sinister and violent prison where the prisoners are forced into death-matches for the warden's amusement. Unlike most of Van Damme's previous movies, his signature martial arts don't play a role, but the fights are portrayed in a more realistic manner. Fan response has received his performance in this film very well. {{tropelist}} ~~=== Tropes present in this film: ===~~ * [[Badass Bookworm]]: Prisoner 451, who has a reputation for killing cellmates, reads books that he collects and stores on his side of the cell he shares with Kyle. * [[Being Tortured Makes You Evil]] Line 22: * [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: Prisoner 451 is played by NFL linebacker Lawrence Taylor. * [[Karmic Death]]: Kyle kills Andre during one of the warden's betting-fights. {{spoiler\|Prisoner 451 later kills the warden}}. * [[Kill It ~~With~~with Fire]]: The reason {{spoiler\|Prisoner 451}} is in prison in the first place. * [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown]]: The vicious masked prisoner Valya beats his opponents to death, and is thus far the only prisoner to be undefeated in the corrupt warden's betting-brawls. * [[The Obi-Wan]]: Prisoner 451 later becomes this to Kyle. * [[Oh Crap]]: Billy's reaction right before his first [[Prison Rape]] experience. {{spoiler\|And the warden's reaction before Prisoner 451 kills him}}. * [[Only Known Byby Their Nickname]]: Prisoner 451. * [[Prison Rape]]: Newly-arrived inmate Billy gets selected for this right off the bat, and it's implied that he's subjected to this every night afterward. * [[Rape Asas Backstory]]: The fate Kyle's wife suffered, in addition to being murdered afterwards. {{spoiler\|Also, Prisoner 451 was sexually abused by a male high school teacher, who he later set on fire in retaliation}}. * [[Rape Asas Drama]] * [[Scary Black Man]]: Prisoner 451, and not without reason--every cell-mate he's had before Kyle [[High Octane Nightmare Fuel\|has gotten their tongues ripped out]]. * [[Smug Snake]]: The warden, the chief guard, and Andre the prison Mafia leader. * [[Working Onon the Chain Gang]] {{reflist}} [[Category:Films of the 2000s]] [[Category:~~In Hell~~{{PAGENAME}}]] [[Category:Film]]
