| After the death of his wife, in a car accident, John Kelly, 6 months after the unfortunate accident befriends a prostitute, Pamela Madden. As time goes by, the two are drawn closer to each other, and they're relationship forms into love. This forces Pam (Pamela) to tell John about her past and what she really is. Pam was a prostitute who was beaten everyday and forced to cooperate with her sadist via drugs. Not only that, there are other girls like Pam who is forced to work for the sadists. If one of the prostitutes try to escape, then Billy or Tucker's, the two evil as well as cruel men, kill them in the most horrific fashion, and make an example of the corpse by revealing it to the girls.
After weeks of rehab, Pam is back to normal, and John Kelly promises that he will get all the girls out. When they approach the neighbourhood, where Pam was mistreated, they are immediately spotted by one of the pimps. After a long chase, John and Pam are beat, resulting in the death of Pam, and serious injury to John. Of course Pam is used as an example so the rest of the girls don't even get the thought of escaping. After John recovers, he finds out about Pam's murder. Out of rage, he seeks revenge, and has made a mission for himself. He plans to rescue all of the prostitutes, finish off all of the drug dealers and stop their main business, which is basically the sale of drugs. One by one, John finishes off the dealers; however, before he gets the big players, he must do a mission for the Navy as a civilian. John Kelly is needed to rescue American pilots who are supposedly held in a Vietnamese prison as POW (prisoners of war). The Americans gathered the intelligence via the photo of one of their pilots, caught and in handcuffs. There is also a possibility of a Russian General, Grishanov, who is obviously in Vietnam to interrogate the American prisoners, in order to gain the knowledge of their military strategies. It's up to John Kelly to rescue the American prisoners. | ||
