“An oddball anthology stitched together by alien paranoia.”

The year is 2030, and Earth is already screwed. A lone, time-traveling survivor uncovers the truth: the alien invasion didn’t begin with war, it started years earlier, buried deep inside our human bodies. Alien doubles, flesh eating worms, and a string of other bizarre encounters prove that our planet was marked for annihilation long before it happened.

Directed by renowned SOV veterans Kevin J. Lindenmuth and Mick McCleery, The Alien Agenda: Out of the Darkness is a quintessential slice of late-era shot-on-video sci-fi horror, mixing the popular anthology trope of the era with the mainstream X-Files mania that swept the nation. It’s moody, experimental structure and grassroots production design make it a raw and fascinating artifact of regional DIY cinema—where the limitations become part of the aesthetic, and its high-minded sci-fi ideas shove their way right past those lo-fi trappings.
