A disease carried by common cockroaches is killing Manhattan children. In an effort to stop the epidemic an entomologist Susan Tyler creates a mutant breed of insect that secretes a fluid to kill the roaches. This mutant breed was engineered to die after one generation but three years later Susan finds out that the species has survived and evolved into a large gruesome monster that can mimic human form.
