Kamikaze 1989 (1982)

In a not-too-distant dystopian future, the iron grip of "the combine" governs all forms of news and television, holding society in a vice of manipulated information. In this world of shadows and secrets, we follow our protagonist, the unyielding super cop Jansen, as he is summoned to the towering headquarters of the combine. A bomb threat has been issued, a chilling whisper of chaos in the order, and Jansen is given a ticking clock of four days to unravel the mystery. As Jansen delves deeper into the labyrinth of the combine, his investigation is marred by a series of perplexing events. A murder ruptures the calm of the first day, vague whispers of the combine's nemesis, the elusive Krysmopompas, begin to permeate the air, and the nephew of the combine's leader surrenders to the charges of the bomb threat, despite his innocence. All the while, rumors swirl of a hidden 31st floor in the 30-story headquarters, a phantom level shrouded in intrigue. Jansen remains a beacon of determination amidst the storm, methodically questioning employees who've been honored with special awards, awards printed on the very paper used for the bomb threat. Each interview peels back another layer of the mystery, leading him closer to a truth that may be more explosive than the threatened bomb itself. In this totalitarian society where truth is the first casualty, will Jansen expose a monumental conspiracy, or is the bomb threat simply a macabre prank in this game of power? As he navigates the treacherous waters of his investigation, he finds himself tangled in a web of intrigue and deceit, unearthing secrets that reach further than he ever bargained for. Each revelation brings him closer to the heart of the combine, the pulse of an oppressor that may prove to be its own worst enemy.
