The story concerns the slightly-mad scientist Dr. Lawrence Angelo (Pierce Brosnan), who as part of a secret government agency called Cybertech has been experimenting with something termed "intelligence enhancement." By using drugs and virtual reality technology, Angelo has managed to boost the IQ of experimental chimps. But he also makes them more aggressive and, bit by bit, they go insane. When one of his animal subjects goes on a rampage, Angelo decides to go for a human guinea pig instead -- Jobe Smith (Jeff Fahey), a slightly retarded man who cuts his lawn. Not only do Jobe's intelligence and sex-drive improve thanks to Angelo's regimen, but he also develops extrasensory perception. As Jobe's mental and emotional state keeps increasing, so does his strength. As he gains more power, Jobe becomes angrier and more vindictive until he vows to get even with all the town's people that patronized him and treated him badly.~Paul Brenner Jeff Fahey - Jobe Smith Pierce Brosnan - Dr. Lawrence Angelo Jenny Wright - Marnie Burke Geoffrey Lewis - Terry McKeen Mark Bringelson - Sebastian Timms Jeremy Slate - Father McKeen Dean Norris - Director Craig Hosking - Helicopter Pilot Patrick Rush - Daniel Silver - 1st Boy Brett Leonard - Director Gimel Everett - Producer Brett Leonard - Screenwriter Gimel Everett - Screenwriter Russell Carpenter - Cinematographer Dan Wyman - Composer (Music Score) Alan E.
