A scientist living in an apartment complex kills a girl and uses acid to destroy her internal organs, and then kills himself. While investigating, a doctor discovers that the scientist was doing experiments on the use of genetically engineered parasites as organ transplants. Soon, other people in the complex begin showing signs of carrying the parasites, spreading the things through wanton orgiastic abandon, and the complex begins suffering an attrition problem.

Plot: Lo scienziato Emil Hobbes s'occupa di riportare alla luce gli istinti umani che, a suo dire, sono troppo soffocati dalla razionalità del cervello, sfruttando un parassita capace d'inoculare nell'organismo ospitante un liquido che ne risveglia gli istinti. Hobbes sperimenta il parassita su Annabelle Brown, una tredicenne sua amante, ma questa, avendo rapporti sessuali con diversi uomini, fa proliferare il parassita nel complesso residenziale dove abita. Lo scienziato capisce che l'esperimento gli è sfuggito di mano e, dopo avere strangolato la ragazzina, s'uccide, ma in breve il parassita infetta tutti gli abitanti del complesso residenziale.
The residents of a suburban high-rise apartment building are being infected by a strain of parasites that turn them into mindless, sex-crazed fiends out to infect others by the slightest sexual contact.
