In 1936, a disgraced academic leads a team to an Egyptian pyramid in search of great secrets. Accompanied by an acclaimed Hollywood director and a wandering former cowboy, they trigger an ancient trap, and find themselves lost in a world of marvels.

Hollywood hasn’t been the same since The Big Flicker, but people – and monsters – still got needs. Gotta eat, gotta drink, gotta pay the bills. When the protection money goes missing from a dive bar, three monstrous employees take a jaunt all over town looking for their cash to save their own necks.
