Plot

An ancient prophecy comes to pass when archaeologists unearth an Egyptian chamber in England, sparking a devastating electromagnetic pulse that originates from Stonehenge and sends destructive shockwaves around the globe.

When the Aztec pyramids crumble and the stones take on a life of their own, a renegade radio host, a team of scientists, and a team of British commandos race to prevent the same force responsible for creating life on Earth from cleansing the planet in order to herald the dawn of a new age.[1] Meanwhile, in Maine, another team discovers a mysterious Egyptian chamber at a depth of 10,000 feet below ground and attempt to connect it to the chamber discovered in England.

Cast
  • Misha Collins as Dr. Jacob Glaser, a once-renowned astrophysicist, now written off as a crazed conspiracy theorist by most of the scientific community (possibly because he believes metal can be radio-carbon dated). He runs a radio show called The Real Story in which he discusses unexplained phenomena with his listeners.
  • Torri Higginson as Dr. Kaycee Leeds.
  • Peter Wingfield as Dr. John Trousdale.
  • Hill Harper as Dr. Joseph LeShem, a former friend and colleague of Dr. Glaser's.

Reception

Stonehenge Apocalypse drew 2.1 million viewers during its premiere.[2]
