Sam Collins (Matthew Lawrence) is a typical teen (with a talent for programming video games) who's the leader of a rock band. One day, at practice, he is the victim of a sudden energy surge. He becomes a character in one of his games, named "Servo". Meanwhile, Malcolm Frink (Glen Beaudin), discovers a strange program in his computer, named "Kilokahn", which is a military Artificial Intelligence program, now presumed destroyed in the energy surge. Now Sam, Sydney (Robin Mary Florence), Tanker (Kevin Castro), and Amp (Lucky) (Rembrandt Sabelis) must fight Kilokahn (Tim Curry) in cyberspace while keeping everything hush-hush.
