Rampage

Primatologist Davis Okoye has kept an unusual bond with George, a highly intelligent silverback raised under his care. When a covert genetic experiment goes wrong, George swells into a colossal, raging creature. Soon other animals affected by the same project turn into enhanced threats.

He teams up with a disgraced geneticist who claims she can help reverse the mutations, even as the duo faces relentless monster onslaughts and a corporate conspiracy bent on profiting from the chaos. The mission becomes a race against time to halt a worldwide catastrophe and save the creature that once trusted him for survival.
