Howard, from an alternate Earth where ducks have evolved to be the dominant species, is transported to this Earth when a scientific experiment goes haywire. He lands in Cleveland, where he befriends punk rocker Lea Thompson. Luckily she is friends with one of the lab assistants that performed the experiment, so they try to reverse the process and get Howard home. Unfortunately one of the scientists becomes possessed by a demon who tries to take over the world. The film almost worked up to this point, but it turns into a special effects driven monstrosity and loses what little momentum it had built up in the first half.
