A “man from the future” enters a diner in Los Angeles. What initially looks like a stickup soon turns out to be a much stranger proposition: he has to recruit the exact right combination of people from the customers present to embark on a nighttime mission to save the world from an artificial intelligence. It requires only a little persuasion and the “gentle” threat to blow up the entire joint for him to secure the volunteers. This motley crew then plunges itself into a dystopian adventure in a constant race against time. With zombie teenagers, robot dolls run amok and all manner of other bizarre things on the rampage – Good luck, have fun, don’t die!
