John Carter (Frank Zagarino), the lone survivor of a Marine Commando unit,
drifts through the low life back streets, haunted by his horrific memories
of war. He survives by fighting for money in the barbaric illegal Kumites.
In the Kumite, Carter meets Larsen (Martin Kove), also an Ex-Marine with a
tortured past, now a crime king-pin in the corrupt city. With his
beautiful girl friend Tanya, Larsen draws Carter into a violent shootout
with a rival crime boss, Tomo.
Escaping, Tanya pleads for Carter’s protection and then seduces him.
Seeking revenge, Tomo’s gang descends on Carter and Tanya. Carter wipes
out Tomo and the rest of the gang. The police show up at the worst moment,
and Carter is left holding the bag for Tomo’s murder. Carter escapes,
finding himself a fugitive. To prove his innocence, Carter tracks Larsen
and his gang to the seaport where he is meeting a container full of human
cargo. Karno and his police arrive. Larsen blows up half the container
port to destroy evidence. Carter is captured by the police, and sure to
die in prison.
The prison transport for Carter turns to be a fake set up by Larsen.
Carter finds himself confronting Larsen at the site of a huge
hydroelectric dam. Carter turns down an offer for an easy escape, and
battles to bring Larsen to justice. Keeping Tanya as hostage, Larsen
escapes in a speedboat. Carter pursues them. As the two men fight, the
boat careers out of control into the dam, and tumbles into the turbine.
Carter and Larsen are left clinging to the edge of the precipice. Only one
will survive.
