CATACLYSM
Only the footage remains. Everything else was erased.
CATACLYSM is a found-footage-style speculative thriller told through classified transcripts, surveillance footage, recovered drone logs, and intercepted communications. When a top-secret government experiment fractures the veil between dimensions, reality begins to unravel across isolated regions of the American Southwest. The story unfolds through fragmented POVs—from special forces operators and hunters to black site analysts and civilians—each capturing a piece of the incursion as it escalates from anomaly to existential threat.
As interdimensional phenomena intensify and human responses fail, Cataclysm fuses the tension of Annihilation with the creeping dread of The Blair Witch Project and the procedural paranoia of The X-Files. What emerges is not just a chronicle of collapse - but a record of what it means to observe, survive, or vanish when something incomprehensible tears through the world.

This was Insane!!
This starts with a slow burn but then erupts into a fast-moving fireball of action that doesn't even give you time to breathe.
Told by a secret government official through many cameras and audio that have been meticulously pieced together like some deranged puzzle that ultimately creates a very large and disturbing picture.
Like I said before.. this was insane!!

4-1/2 stars. Wow. Even though I sensed correctly how this would end, the ride to get there is great reading. Superb action. Realistic dialogue and decent characters. I'd be interested in knowing if there is a sequel. Have to check it out.
