- TriviaShannon Elizabeth's film debut.
- GoofsThe janitor towards the beginning gets checked with a metal detection wand and only his keys set it of. Almost a minute later, after he radios that he's found the explosives, he cuts a wire out of his arm. That would have set off the device.

Featured review
Greetings from Lithuania.
"Blast" (1997) doesn't have anything that will want you to see it or f by any chance you will - to remember it longer then one minute after you will watch. Even Rutger Hauer, who is a very compelling screen presence in almost everything he does couldn't save this flat, predictable and very lazy flick. I don't usually watch this kinda movies now, but at the time i owned this in VHS format, and somehow stumble on it in my attic - this is the only reason i'm writing this now to inform you - don't watch it, don't waste your time on it.
Overall, there isn't really anything to say about this very poor "Die Hard" rip-off. You definitely have seen this movie without seeing it many times in much, much better movies. Just a poor flick.
