Filmed in the Philippines, not exactly suspenseful or atmospheric; a female pathologist, Dr. Alix Pardee (Antoinette Bower), investigates the death of a mysterious, brutish man. She finds that an American scientist, Dr. Bill Fleming (Craig Littler), is engaging in strange experiments on local criminals and the failures are set loose as slow hairy targets deep in a Philippine jungle so they can be hunted down by a wealthy and sadistic rancher from Texas, Stewart Victor (Harry Lauter).

The title promises a Superbeast, which is released close to the movies finale. Guess who has developed into the creature? Of note: this is the first credited role for Ms. Bower and the last movie featuring veteran character actor Lauter. Also in the cast: Vic Diaz, Manny Ojeda and John Garwood.
