"They're – they're hurting me. Oh! Oh! They're putting something inside me!"

Desperate to learn the secrets of the human body’s immune system, the aliens steal medical equipment from a hospital operating room and begin abducting people for experimentation. However, the radiation inside the aliens’ hidden base has a detrimental effect on their victims, killing them before the proper examination work can be completed. In desperation, the invaders resort to placing implants inside their victims’ bodies, then releasing them with the aim of recapturing them later for further study. When the Blackwood Project team begin conducting interviews with several of the abductees, Harrison becomes involved with one woman in particular, the beautiful Karen McKinney, who has been experiencing nightmares in which she is attacked by three hideous creatures. Harrison and Karen soon fall in love – but when the aliens take over the bodies of two paramedics and use a stolen ambulance to start retrieving their victims, Karen’s days become numbered…
