Jack "Soldier" Kelly is a New York City police officer and Vietnam veteran. Having served in the Marine Special Forces (nicknamed the "Snake Eaters"), he has retained a penchant for unorthodox methods and makeshift traps. Kelly learns that his parents have been killed and his sister abducted in rural Tennessee, and travels to the backwater town where the attack took place. He finds out that it lives under the boot of a violent redneck clan led by the demented "Junior" Night, who dresses in a bear costume to commit some of his crimes. King, an old mechanic, takes a liking to Kelly and transforms his trusty chopper bike into a jetski. Now able to navigate the local waterways, Kelly tracks down the gang to enact his vengeance and rescue his sister.
