Als niemand hem helpt, lost Schwarzenegger het wel op in z'n eentje!!
FBI agent Kaminsky (Arnold Schwarzenegger) is ontslagen vanwege zijn gewelddadige karakter. Wanneer echter de zoon van Kaminsky's oud-collega en goede vriend Shannon (Darren McGavin) wordt vermoord door de beruchte maffiaorganisatie van godfather Patrovita (Sam Wanamaker), is er maar één man die bruut genoeg is om te infiltreren in het levensgevaarlijke gangsternetwerk: Kaminski. Onder de valse naam Joseph Brenner wint hij het vertrouwen van Patrovita wanneer hij tijdens een slordige slachtpartij op een politiekantoor een grote partij drugs herovert. Brenner alias Kaminsky krijgt nu de opdracht van Patrovita om niemand minder dan Shannon te vermoorden. Een keiharde confrontatie is het gevolg....
