A shipwreck during the Second World War washes the British prisoner of war Bronson and the Japanese soldier Saito ashore. Barely conscious, the arch-enemies immediately go for each other's throats. But there is a far greater danger lurking on the island: a bloodthirsty beast with almost invincible powers, a perfectly evolved killing machine with the sole aim of destroying it. The two unequal men only have a chance of survival if they join forces. A war scenario that mutates into a monster movie, with martial arts interludes and adventure movie exoticism? Director Mike Wiluan clearly has fun with many genres and lards his breakneck rollercoaster ride with plenty of film references - from ALIEN to PREDATOR, but above all with a deep bow to Jack Arnold's CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON and monsters in good old rubber suits.
