Plot
In the small Jersey Town, mad scientist Dr. Knarf is experimenting with plants to create his own army of mutated plants, insects and vegetables. One evening, as Knarf is about to vivisect a mutant eggplant, his assistant Dennis (a mutated humanoid pumpkin) brings him a small creature he has found, locked in a cage. This is the Jersey Devil, still an infant. Knarf immediately decides to vivisect him, but discovers that he has broken his last scalpel. Furious, he leaves the workshop to go and buy more. In the meantime, however, the little Jersey Devil manages to free himself and turns the laboratory upside down. When Knarf returns, the devil completely destroys the lab with a vial of nitroglycerin.

Many years later, Jersey Town has become a city and all the inhabitants are terrified of Dr. Knarf's creatures. It's up to the now grown up Jersey Devil to stop him.
