On Dr. Marlowe’s isolated island, Captain Thorne and Rook dock, only to find the Doctor’s mutated shrew experiments have overgrown into ravenous, oversized terrors besieging the lab. Trapped with Jerry, Griswold, and Radford, Thorne must outsmart these furry fiends using improvised armor and a barrel-based escape plan before they all end up as shrew-d appetizers.
