 20 years ago a vicious street gang leaves a transvestite prostitute burned and barely clinging to life in one of the worst hate crimes ever to be prosecuted. Now, the rehabilitated gang members are being stalked by an assassin. Armed with whip and blade and dressed in Pirate-drag regalia, the killer is collecting heads. Terry, a former gang initiate turned "State s Witness", runs for his life as he attempts to shield his fiancée Nicole from his sordid past. With the aid of Barrett, the original detective assigned to the case, Terry makes the unfortunate discovery that his own lovely Nicole, post sexual reassignment surgery and suffering a split personality, is the killer.
