The premise

A team of environmentalists, including a reporter, her camera man, and an environmentalist's famous girlfriend charter a boat and with the captain, sail to a military island. They suspect the island is hosting to illegal activities. Upon arrival, however, they find no one. They finally reach a deserted house, where they find Dr. Susan Richardson, who tells them that everyone on the island is dead, including her father. Richardson's team were working on a compound that could make edible plants grow to super size, however the military intervened with plans of their own. They wanted to test the compound's effects on animals, and proceeded to feed it to several komodo dragons and cobras.

Horror Vault's take

When a group of environmentalists and journalists sneak onto a restricted military island expecting to expose illegal operations, they find something far worse than paperwork violations waiting in the undergrowth. A well-intentioned agricultural research project was hijacked by the military and turned into an animal-growth experiment — with catastrophic results. Now the island's apex predators have been transformed into something enormous, hungry, and very hard to outrun. Escape won't be easy when the whole island is the hunting ground.
