Vernon Paris (James Stapleton) is an up and coming concert pianist. One night, his cab driver takes his eyes off the road to show Vernon some pictures of his own piano-playing son. This results in a terrible crash, leaving Vernon’s hands mangled beyond repair. Across town, someone is gunned down in the street. He is D.O.A., but his hands come in… um, handy as replacements for Vernon’s destroyed appendages. Vernon’s doctor (Paul Lukather) stitches the hands on and hopes for the best. Well, Vernon doesn’t like the idea and sets out on a killing spree.
