Storyline: Chev Chelios
survives a fall from the sky, sort of. He’s in an unknown location,
sedated, while various Chinese are harvesting his organs. His heart is
gone, in an ice chest; a temporary in its place. Chev escapes, knowing
only the name of the guy with the ice chest. He calls Doc Miles, an
unlicensed cardiologist, who tells him there’s only an hour’s life in
the artificial heart: keep it charged. Chev needs to find his own heart
and get to Doc for a transplant. He starts his time-limited pursuit of
shadowy figures, the ice chest, and his heart aided by Eve, Rei, and
Venus – a stripper, a prostitute, and a pal with Tourette’s – constantly
needing an electric charge to keep going.
