John Trevor (Leslie Nielsen) escapes from the military base where he commanded Project: Kill, a mind control experiment that used drugs to create bodyguards and assassins for the United States and makes his way to the Philippines. Soon Trevor finds himself in love with Lee Su (Nancy Kwan) and feeling the withdrawal symptoms from the drugs for the mind control that make him very dangerous not only to himself but evryone around him.
His former second in command Project: Kill agent Frank Lassiter (Gary Lockwood) has been ordered to find him before the withdrawl effects become too violent and before he sells out the program. Asian mobster Alok Lee (Vic Diaz) is also after Trevor in the hopes of getting the secrets of Project: Kill. Time is running out for Trevor as the withdrawl becomes worse, Lassiter, the Philippine police, and Lee's men close in on him.
