A nuclear test causes a massive hurricane and mutates a Crocodile to gigantic proportions. Dr. Akom and Dr. Strom, two overworked hospital M.D.s dealing with the massive amount of casualties from the disaster, decide to spend the weekend on vacation with their families, but all is not well in the water and the doctors' loved ones are picked off by the Crocodile. Upon discovering the killer's true identity, the doctors swear revenge and side with a local fisherman who is supposedly destined to face off with the beast, while the monster rampages through Thai water villages.
