Detention -- A heroic high school teacher leads a band of students trapped in school by violent drug-runners.

Chicago -- At a time when crimes of passion result in celebrity headlines, nightclub sensation Velma Kelly (Zeta-Jones) and spotlight seeking Roxie Hart (Zellweger) both find themselves sharing space on Chicago's famed Murderess Row! They also share Billy Flynn (Gere), the town's slickest lawyer with a talent for turning notorious defendants into local legends.

A group of high school students are sent to after-school detention for unexplained reasons. There, the teenagers find themselves abandoned and locked in the classroom after their detention teacher leaves, then mysteriously disappears. With night slowly approaching, a thunder storm builds outside. The heavy rain and lightning cause a massive power failure throwing the school into total darkness. Then, strange, haunting images of ghosts begin to appear in the school. The kids manage to break out of the classroom only to find that the old building has taken on a life of its own, keeping them trapped inside. As they struggle to escape, the teenagers learn about the death of a student back in the 1970s. Slowly, they unravel the history of this tragedy and that they are somehow connected to the student's macabre and untimely death. They will also soon find out that they are being held responsible for this horrific event of the past, and will pay for it with their lives!

High school teacher Sam Decker (Dolph Lundgren) has decided to quit his grueling job. On his last day, he's relegated to overseeing a group of rebellious students during after-hours detention -- a challenging task that suddenly becomes a life-or-death situation when gun-toting thugs decide to use the school as a base for an armored-car robbery. As Sam and the kids help each other pull through the ordeal, they also uncover a startling conspiracy.
