When security guard Aaron loses his eyesight while saving a coworker from an explosion, he is chosen to be the first human recipient of a new eye transplant procedure. Not sure why a secret government experiment would chose a civilian for their first test subject, but they do. Aaron is given wolf eyes which works well in the sense that he can see again, plus he has great night vision. But it's not so great in that he starts acting wolfy. Who knew that eyeballs had such power? He develops a craving for raw meat, starts having vision of wolves and buffalo, and doesn't seem to have any control over some of his wolfy actions which causes trouble.The government is working on this project to give soldiers night vision. Aaron escapes from the hospital before they can study him which leads the military to hunt him down. While Aaron is running around the streets, he meets a Native American woman who is angry about the military experiments on animals. She recognizes Aaron's eyes as those of the injured wolf she had tried to save and decides to help him.
It all boils down to half the film being padded by Aaron running with wolves. There is even a scene right out of Little House on the Prairie where Aaron happily (and awkwardly) runs through a field with a pack of wolves. Nothing really happens once the premise is set up.
