Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Syngenor
SYNGENOR was directed by George Elanjian Jr. in 1990.

Journalist Nick Cary helps Susan Valentine to find who's the murderer of her uncle Ethan Valentine, a scientist. Their investigation will lead them to Carter Brown and his company Norton Cyberdyne for whom Ethan had worked. Carter Brown is keeping in the basement of the Norton Building a few syngenors (Synthesized Genetic Organism) which are cyborgs meant to eventually replace the American soldiers. But the scientific project went wrong at a certain time and the syngenors are now uncontrollable. Furthermore, a syngenor is able to spawn a duplicate every 24 hours.

While Carter Brown (David Gale) is little by little becoming completely insane in his office, Nick and Susan discover the cyborgs who manage to get out of the basement. How will they fight these creatures specially prepared to face any kind of warriors ?
