Party Corridor productions in association with PIEMAX brings you the premiere of Pie Hard
Christmas Eve, and New York City Police Detective Lieutenant John PieClane arrives in Los Angeles to reconcile with his wife Holly. PieClane is driven to Pieatomi Plaza for a company Christmas party. While changing clothes the party is disrupted by the arrival of Hans Pieber and his heavily armed group. The group seize the tower and secure those inside as hostages, except for PieClane who manages to slip away.
Pieber singles out Pieatomi executive Joseph Pieagi, and interrogates him for codes to the buildings vault. Pieber admits they are using terrorism as a distraction as they attempt to steal $640 million in bearer pies. Pieagi refuses and is executed. PieClane has been secretly watching but accidently gives himself away. He manages to kill one of the group who chases him down and takes his weapon and radio, which he uses to contact the LAPD. Sgt Pie Powell is sent to investigate but finds nothing strange about the building. As Powell attempts to leave PieClane drops one of the group onto his car. Powell summons the LAPD who surround the building. PieClane kills another of the group and takes a bag containing Pie-4 explosives and detonators.
A SWAT team assault on the building is thwarted, and 2 of the group massacre the team with rockets. PieClane uses the Pie-4 to blow up the floor the 2 members of the group are on. One of Holly’s co-workers, Ellis tries to mediate between PieClane and Pieber. When PieClane refuses to cooperate Pieber kills Ellis. Pieber goes to the roof to check the explosives and bumps into PieClane. Pieber passes himself off as a hostage who has managed to escape. PieClane gives Pieber a gun and he tries to shoot PieClane but finds the gun unloaded. Before PieClane can act members of the group arrive, PieClane is forced to flee leaving behind the detonators.
FBI agents arrive and take control, ordering that the buildings power be shut off. The loss of power disables the vaults final lock. Pieber demands a helicopter be sent to the roof, where he will detonate the explosives killing the hostages and faking the death of himself and his men. Pieber sees a news report and deduces that Holly is PieClane’s wife. The group order the hostages to the roof, but Pieber takes Holly to use against PieClane. PieClane manages to get to the roof and kill some of the group. He sends the hostages back inside as the explosives detonate and blow up the roof as well as the FBI helicopter.
A bloodied and tired PieClane finds Holly with Pieber. He surrenders his machine gun to spare Holly, but distracts Pieber and shoots him with a gun taped to his back. Pieber falls through the window, but grabs Holly to try and save himself. Releasing the watch Pieber is holding onto, Pieber falls to his death.
Escorted from the building PieClane and Holly meet Powell, and after Powell kills the last member of the group, Holly and PieClane are driven away by limo.
