In a presidential election set somewhere in the near future, Bud Johnson (Kevin Costner), a lovable loser from Texico, New Mexico, who is coasting through life and hasn't had a single political thought in his head, is thrust into an improbable dilemma. In response, he is coaxed by his 8-year-old daughter Molly (Madeline Carroll) to take more of a serious approach to life. Molly runs the household and sees an opportunity on election day to energize her father. Molly, frustrated with her father's apathy toward voting, sneaks into her local polling place and tries to vote on behalf of Bud. However, due to the voting machines being unplugged, the ballot is registered, but there is no decision on which candidate gets the vote. The entire election comes down to this one man and, namely, Bud's vote. Neither candidate has a majority in the electoral college without New Mexico's electoral votes. The popular vote is tied for the two major candidates in New Mexico, leaving Bud to decide the next President of the United States. Bud gets wooed by candidates from both sides: the incumbent Republican, Andrew Carington Boone (Kelsey Grammer), and his campaign manager, Martin Fox (Stanley Tucci); and the opposing Democrat, Vermont Senator Donald Greenleaf (Dennis Hopper).

Years after a zombie apocalypse, survivors have set up outposts across the United States, one of which, in the city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, contains a feudal-like government. Bordered on two sides by rivers and on the third by an electric fence, the city has become a sanctuary, with the rich and powerful living in a luxury high-rise called Fiddler's Green while the rest of the population subsists in squalor. The city's ruler Paul Kaufman (Dennis Hopper) has sponsored Dead Reckoning, a heavily armored vehicle that can travel through the zombie-infested areas with ease. Armed with remote-controlled heavy machine guns and video cameras, Dead Reckoning functions as a moving fireworks launch base, on the premise that zombies are fascinated by fireworks and will stare at them, ignoring their environment. Riley Denbo (Simon Baker), designer and commander of Dead Reckoning, has recently retired. Unlike Kaufman, Riley is respected for his work in protecting the city from danger, as well as for bringing critical food and medical supplies which the citizens can no longer acquire safely themselves.

CIA director Maxwell Danforth (Lancaster) watches a filmed recording of agent Laurence Fassett (Hurt) and his wife making love. When Fassett goes into the bathroom to take a shower, two assassins enter the bedroom and kill his wife (Merete Van Kamp) by holding her down and injecting poison into her nostril with a syringe. It is suggested that the woman was an innocent bystander sacrificed by Danforth as collateral damage. Fassett, unaware of his employer's involvement, goes almost insane with grief and rage and begins to hunt down the assassins, eventually uncovering a Soviet spy network known as Omega.

Parce qu'il y a du brouillard et que les avions ne peuvent circuler, Hélène Lehman décide de se rendre en chemin de fer à Zurich pour y retrouver son amant. Dans le train, elle fait involontairement la connaissance d'un journaliste, Lucas Richter, dont le mutisme et l'étrange comportement l'intriguent quelque peu. Or, la malencontreuse erreur d'un douanier fait qu'Hélène se retrouve en possession du passeport de Lucas. Ce n'est pourtant qu'à son hôtel et après avoir appris que son amant ne viendrait pas que la jeune femme s'aperçoit de la chose. Dès lors, elle n'a de cesse de retrouver Lucas dont elle sait seulement qu'il doit rentrer à Paris le soir même. Pendant ce temps, le journaliste négocie un dossier compromettant avec les responsables d'une société multinationale. Il s'agit de faire publier des documents accablants pour un groupe concurrent. En réalité, ces preuves ne serviront qu'à faire pression sur les intéressés afin d'obtenir une part substantielle d'un important marché. Mais cela, Lucas l'ignore quand il repart pour la France. De même qu'il ne sait pas qu'Hélène le cherche et qu'elle a été poursuivie une bonne partie de l'après-midi par un étrange individu, Medford, qui est également monté dans le train. Là, Hélène retrouve Lucas et lui relate les incidents qui ont émaillé sa journée. Parallèlement, à Paris et Zurich, les financiers finissent par se mettre d'accord et sur le contrat et sur le fait que l'inconnue qui accompagne Lucas doit disparaître. Cependant, pressentant qu'un danger menace, Lucas décide de passer à l'action. Il parvient à faire stopper le train et à éliminer Medford sans toutefois réussir à empêcher qu'Hélène, sa "complice" inattendue, soit poignardée, à peine arrivée à Paris.

The movie follows two female American officers (played by Maria Lease and Kathy Williams) who volunteer to enter a Nazi camp undercover to gain information from, and possibly rescue, an inmate. The camp's female inmates serve as prostitutes for German officers and are subjected to humiliating treatment, torture, and rape. When the two female agents learn that their target is being held in solitary detention, one of them arranges to be punished so that she can make contact. This leads to Lt. Harman (Lease) being stripped and strung up by her wrists. The target uses her body to free Harman and they attempt their escape. The escape plan ends in a climactic battle. The movie shows female full frontal nudity for a majority of the film.
