Will plays a mad scientist who is dismissed by the scientific community for his "quantum paleontology" theory which posits - now let's see if we got it correctly - that all the things that ever existed or will exist on Earth can come together in a time-warped alternate universe. By accident, Will and his acquantainces - pretty scientist Anna Friel and rowdy redneck Danny McBride - find themselves transported to this universe.
All manner of absurd scenes can now take place: Will drenches himself in dinosaur urine, Anna gets kidnapped by lizard zombie aliens, and an apeman sings a number from The Chorus Line. It's all dumb, tasteless and meaningless - and yet frequently laugh-out-loud funny.
