Amerika 2019: Das Fernsehen dient einem totalitären Regime als Manipulations-Instrument gegen das Volk. Die beliebteste Live-Show heißt "The Running Man" und ist ein moderner Gladiatorenkampf um Leben oder Tod. Die Kandidaten sind lebenslänglich verurteilte Strafgefangene, die gegen Profikiller um ihr Leben kämpfen müssen. Als sich der Polizist Ben Richards weigert, wehrlose Menschen niederzuschießen, landet er als Kandidat in der Show. Aber Ben dreht den Spieß um ...
Ein zynischer Actionfilm, der die wenigen Ansätze zu einer kritischen Auseinandersetzung mit dem Mißbrauch der Medien durch seine grelle Inszenierung verschenkt (Lex. des Internat. Films).
