Summary

The crew of a tugboat caught in a Pacific typhoon boards a seemingly abandoned Russian research vessel, hoping to claim it as salvage. Once aboard, they discover the ship has been overrun by an alien electrical intelligence that views humans as a virus to be exterminated, and is using the ship's machinery to build mechanical killers from human parts.
