Strange anomalies are ripping holes in the fabric of time, allowing creatures from distant past and far future to roam the modern world. Evolutionary zoologist Nick Cutter and his team must track down and capture these dangerous creatures and try to put them back where they belong.

Cutter and the team find themselves stranded on a storm-ridden island fighting to survive amidst the terrifying creatures roaming the harsh landscape...
