Through a late night conspiracy broadcast, a frantic caller claims human beings from the future are living on the moon, controlling our every action.
Through a late night conspiracy broadcast, a frantic caller claims human beings from the future are living on the moon, controlling our every action. His call is cut short, but when a box of unusual materials arrives at the radio station several days later, filmmakers Matt and Sonny become involved and pursue the story, following the lead and chasing a set of hidden coordinates deep into Louisiana's Atchafalaya Basin. An enormous and dark underground facility reveals there may be more truth to the caller's story than believed, and quickly entangles the filmmakers in uncovering a history that was meant to be long forgotten. They narrowly escape with one unusual artifact, but soon find themselves in a threatening encounter with the bizarre and reclusive Church of Lunology, an organization very dedicated to keeping their mysterious secrets, and silencing anyone who stands in their way. Now hunted and on the run, they flee their homes only to encounter David James, a man who claims to have escaped from the moon as a child. His interview provides much needed answers, and even a solution to their problem. Committed to protecting themselves by filming their story, they keep the cameras rolling as they discover earth's secret history, and fight to survive a hunt that would have already taken their lives, if they weren't in possession of one unusual artifact. Time is almost up, but their story cannot end until they face head-on the most powerful and secret organization in the world.

While researching his family's genealogy, MacGyver discovers that his family name was disgraced during the Middle Ages. He is then knocked unconscious and, not surprisingly, is transported through dreams to the time of King Arthur (a curious Pete look-alike!). Here he must confront some stubborn knights, convince Arthur that he is a friend, and set out in search of his forefathers. Knocked out by a falling piano after a visit to a dodgy genealogist, recommended by Pete, who claims to trace his ancestry back to the 7th century M'Iver clan, MacGyver dreams of arriving at king Arthur's court. His family is so hated that even its name may not be mentioned, but he soon proves himself a magician worthy of haughty Merlin's obvious jealousy. Having won Arthur's confidence, he proves that the king was poisoned by Sir Duncan and foils the fiendish table knight's attempt to set up a page and Merlin as the killer. The plot must be concocted by Arthur's sworn enemy, Scottish queen Morgana, so Merlin and Mac are sent after Duncan into her realm. Merlin leads them straight into their trap, but it proves lethal only for Duncan.

An industrial worker (Christian Bale) who hasn't slept in a year begins to doubt his own sanity.
An industrial worker who hasn't slept in a year begins to doubt his own sanity. Trevor Reznik is a machinist in a factory. An extreme case of insomnia has led to him not sleeping in a year, and his body withering away to almost nothing. He has an obsessive compulsion to write himself reminder notes and keep track of his dwindling weight, both scribbled on yellow stickies in his apartment. The only person he lets into his life in an emotional sense is Stevie, a prostitute, although he has an infatuation with Maria, a single mother waitress working in an airport diner. His co-workers don't associate with and mistrust him because of not knowing what is going on in his life that has led to his emaciated physical appearance. A workplace incident further alienates him with his coworkers, and in conjunction with some unfamiliar pieces of paper he finds in his apartment, Trevor believes that someone or some people - probably one or some of his coworkers - are out to get him, using a phantom employee named Ivan as their front. As Trevor goes on a search for evidence as to Ivan's schemes and whereabouts, Trevor may come to a true understanding of what has caused his insomnia.
