Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka
In this uneven Kiwi action-adventure with a few plot holes here and there, two Americans get into trouble when they accept a job delivering some dangerous cargo and then spend the rest of their time escaping the bad guys. Scientist Christine Rubin (Lisa Harrow) steals a biological weapon in the form of a deadly virus, intending to hand it over to an American intelligence agent to keep it out of the hands of military mercenaries. She recruits a down-and-out stunt driver (Cliff Robertson) and his mechanic (Leif Garrett) to be the couriers -- which sets them up as targets, and the chase is on.
