Synopsis:<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

After five years of failure, quantum physics research professor Jake McAllister faces the end of his dream\u2014he must deliver on his promised anti-gravity or face project termination. Desperate for a solution, Jake and lab partner Rudy Weiss push the limits and accidentally breach the multiverse, releasing an evil imprisoned since ancient times.<\/p>\n

Now free, the evil feeds on fear as it eats its way through Jake\u2019s hometown, Tanner’s Bend, New York. For the unsuspecting residents, their thoughts become reality, but with an evil twist. A teenage boy channels the evil and explodes his abusive father into flames. A widow hears her dead husband’s voice begging her to eat a scattergun. Bar patrons\u2019 bones dissolve before their limp flesh can hit the floor.<\/p>\n

Before the evil can consume them, Jake and teaching assistant TJ Culler escape through a wormhole into a distant future where technology is taboo. With the help of a secreted defense drone, an AI robot, and a burly mountain man, they must find a way to repair the fractured timeline, but not before the mysterious Caretaker reveals Jake and TJ\u2019s true destiny and the superpowers hidden within them.<\/p>\n
