Action, Comedy, Sci-Fi

Hairi (Saiful Apek) is a loser who lives in Metrofulus. While working in the lab, he accidentally drinks coffee that has been contaminated by a virus-infected gecko. He soon finds himself doing the most insane things, such as sticking to walls, making chirping cicak noises and adding bugs to his menu. He turns to his best friend and apartment mate, Danny (Yusry Abdul Halim), and begs him to find the reason behind his strange antics. Meanwhile, the people of Metrofulus are constantly being infected by new strains of viruses, and the only cure seems to come only from Professor Klon's (Aznil Nawawi) lab. Suspecting something amiss, Hairi and Danny launch their own investigation and discover that Professor Klon is not only the creator of such viruses, but also has a more sinister plan up his sleeve, backed by his business partners, the Ginger Boys Ramlie and AC Mizal, who first tend to take revenge on Professor Klon's failed experiment on them; making their senses turn abnormal.

Plot

Hairi works at Klon Technologies searching new vaccines for new diseases. He's too shy to approach Tania, the girl he loves (Professor Klon's secretary) and awkward enough to swallow a "cicak"-lizard which fell in his cup of coffee. The lizard was contaminated by a new virus and Hairi will gains some characteristics of the "cicak". A new super hero is born: Cicakman. Hairi's joint-tenant (and best friend) works with him at Klon Technologies, too, and he suspects Professor Klon of creating and spreading new viruses, just to improve his business' turn-over and his profit. But how to establish the tycoon's misbehavior? They need to enter and seek through Professor Klon's office, thus, they need Tania's pass to clear the security devices... and Hairi is too shy, too awkward... The "cicak" (say "Chichak") is the Malay name of a little lizard (gecko?) able to walk the window-panes and the ceiling, and the Malayan brats are used to throw rubber bands at, just to have it fall. The characters' play is at once humorous (Hairi), overdone (Prof. Klon and the Ginger twins) or serious (Danny, Tania), and many viewers can be surprised and dislike this mixture. Now, you won't be surprised, so will you like it?
