On a remote island off the North American coast, a mercenary squad is attacked and slaughtered by a lone aggressor during a nighttime operation.
The encounter is a result of the efforts of a scientist named Dr. Krieger to turn soldiers into mutants who boast superstrength and resillience, but are uncontrollable.
She agrees to meet with her informant on Krieger's island and hires Jack Carver, a retired special forces operative now working as a tour skipper, to take her there.
While they attempt to escape, Valerie is forced to dine with Krieger, who orders the mercenaries to unleash Max on Jack and Emilio.
After taking heavy casualties, half of the surviving mercenaries realize Krieger is insane, abandon him and team up with Jack to escape the island.
The film ends with Jack in a relationship with Valerie, having obtained a new boat so he can continue to work as a skipper, and Emilio has been hired to be part of his crew.
