  • Eddie Turner steps on a landmine in Afghanistan and most of his limbs are blown off. Back in the USA, his fiancé, Dr Alicia Walker, thinks she has found a solution to their problems; her former teacher Dr Richard Stein, who has just won a Nobel Peace Prize. Dr Stein creates new replacement arms for Eddie, but is he is required to constantly give the patient a secretive injection. At the same time, Eddie is verbally abused by the hospital orderly. Stein's assistan Malcolm approaches Alicia and confesses his attraction to her, but she reveals that she plans to marry Eddie once his treatment is complete. An enraged Malcolm seeks to murder Eddie and tries to sabotage his injections. As a result of Malcolm's actions, once Eddie returns home, he becomes a shambling monster, leaving the house each night to go on a nightmarish rampage. He starts by returning to the hospital and killing the abusive orderly. One night, while Eddie is out of the house, Malcolm arrives and reveals to the terrified Alicia that he killed Eddie so that they could be together. When she resists him, he tries to rape her. Eddie bursts in and kills Malcolm, and horrified by Alicia's reaction, flees the house. Alicia finds Stein at his home and informs him that Eddie is the monster. They set out into the night to find him. Eddie, meanwhile, finds a woman trying and failing to start her jeep, which he then pushes into a ravine. Just then, Stein and Alicia arrive. They get out of the car and Stein gets into a fight with Eddie, culminating in Eddie also throwing Stein into the ravine, just as Alicia gets back in the car and runs Eddie down. However, Eddie gets back up relatively unscathed and continues to chase her. After a long and terrifying chase, Alicia is saved by the police, who have come out in force to stop the monster. Then unleash a pack of vicious attack dogs, who maul Eddie to death.
