VHSHITFEST has been uncovering and releasing movies on video for over a decade, across DVD and VHS, and is now moving into blu-ray, with the same goal to showcase the most unique, crazy, and obscure movies that they've discovered through years of collecting VHS, allowing even more people to actually be able to experience these nearly lost gems in the best versions possible.

Join Will Walker as he test pilots a captured enemy ship that shadows an unearthly childhood. On the mission he must work with a team of engineers and scientists who are members of an ancient secret society. By methodical use of silverware and ladders they have figured out how to make the movie (which is Will’s life) auto-rewind to the beginning over and over again.

Jared Whitham started Project Omicron when he was 15 years old and spent 7 years working on it. The result is one of the most unique and mind-bending sci-fi films you can imagine while also being a perfect love letter to the 50s science fiction films Whitham grew up watching. VHSHITFEST is so happy to shine a light on this extremely obscure gem with hours of extras!
