"A young woman documents her experience being stalked by an anonymous stranger, which leads a documentary film crew to discover an otherworldly mystery. Unexplainable events, an unravelling conspiracy, and an unsolved murder begin to reveal a threat lurking just beyond our understanding."
'WORLDS' starts off as a true crime documentary, but quickly spirals into a mystery that blurs the line between fact and fiction. The film transforms from a murder investigation into a tale of powers beyond comprehension.
This special screening of 'WORLDS' will be hosted by the film's director, Chris Hammarberg, along with cast and crew. 'WORLDS' was shot primarily in New Jersey and is as independent as you can get. The film has traveled around the country this year, playing at genre festivals like Panic Fest in Kansas City, MO and Horrorigins in Tucson, AZ and has finally come home to New Jersey.
RUNTIME: 78 minutes
