Summary

Renowned oneirologist Ambrose London [Furlong] is requested to Arkham Asylum by newly appointed Dr. Barnard [Priver] to study the strange case of James Fhelleps [Miano]. He’s a patient seemingly inhabited by the personality of Joe Slater, a denizen of the Catskill Mountains region–a primitive colonial peasant of barbaric degeneracy, who had mysteriously vanished 122 years ago. Ambrose and Barnard’s investigation takes an unexpected turn when Fhelleps/Slater is attached to London’s ‘Dream Machine,’ which releases an alien life form bent on world annihilation.
