The Manster

American foreign news correspondent Larry Stanford (Dyneley) has been working out of Japan for the last few years, to the detriment of his marriage. His last assignment before returning to his wife in the United States is an interview with the renowned but reclusive scientist Dr. Robert Suzuki. Suzuki injects an unknown substance into Larry's shoulder, causing him to fall into a deep sleep. Larry is oblivious to the true situation and accepts Suzuki's invitation to spend the next week vacationing with him around Japan.
