Hostage

Richard, religious fanatic, takes over a federal building and threatens to kill his captives. In San Francisco, a local messiah leads a troupe of his gun-toting parishioners to take over a federal office. While they hold the office staff hostage, this religious loony, after a moment of prayer, demands that four convicts in San Quentin be turned over to him for execution. His particular brand of worship demands an eye for an eye, and these four thugs had desecrated his church and murdered his family. The law had sentenced them to prison, but he wants them executed and planned to do it personally.
