In 1943, a secret government project attempted to create a cloaking device that would make warships invisible. But during the first test, the USS Eldridge successfully vanished...and could not be found again. 70 years later, the Navy destroyer momentarily reappears on a Pennsylvania runway allowing the sole surviving crewman to escape and a local lawman to board. What is behind a sinister reactivation of the project? Where will the massive ship materialize next? And what will become of two men trapped in a time/space catastrophe?
The Philadelphia Experiment will delight fans of the original film and create new debate among conspiracy theorists about this allegedly true military operation from the past. Whether you believe it or not – get ready for one incredibly strange trip!
