Un homme se réveille, enfermé dans sorte de labyrinthe souterrain, tellement exigu, qu'il peut à peine s'y déplacer. Il ne se souvient ni d’où il vient ni comment il est arrivé dans cet enfer. À l'abdomen, il a une blessure profonde et douloureuse. Il commence à se déplacer dans les confins étroits de ce labyrinthe, en tentant de survivre aux pièges mortels omniprésents.

The film opens with a man (called only "the man", or the "Metal Fetishist"), cutting open a massive gash in his leg and then shoving a large threaded steel rod into the wound. Later, upon seeing maggots festering in the wound, he screams, runs out into the street, and is hit by a car. The driver of the car, a Japanese businessman (Tomorowo Taguchi), and his girlfriend (Kei Fujiwara) try to cover up the mess by dumping the body into a ravine, but the dumped man gets revenge by forcing the businessman's body to gradually metamorphose into a walking pile of scrap metal. This process starts when the driver finds a piece of metal stuck in his cheek while shaving. He tries to remove it, but realizes it is growing from the inside.
