In the summer of 1977, Saturday night fever ruled and the first thrashings of punk were being heard.

By day temperatures soared on the sweltering streets of Manhattan but by night a serial killer dubbed the Son of Sam stalked the suburbs, indiscriminately shooting young brunettes and held New York City in a grip of terror.

A young boy learns that he has extraordinary powers and is not of this Earth. As a young man, he journeys to discover where he came from and what he was sent here to do. But the hero in him must emerge if he is to save the world from annihilation and become the symbol of hope for all mankind.
