Meet Victor and Mark.
Theyre losers.
They live together.
They wish something would change.

Its about to.

Mark and Victor are long-time roommates, but they arent very good at it. Victor is a harried business analyst. Mark cant hold a job as a pizza deliveryman. Victor washes the dishes every night. Mark leaves a toilet in the living room. Their common interests consist of beer, pot, and the Discovery Channel.

Then a meteorite crashes in their backyard.

Victor ignores the astronomical happening until he discovers he can now lift the refrigerator. Then one night, after a muggers bullet fails to pierce his skin, Victor realizes his newfound strength is nothing less than a chance to reinvent his pathetic existence; he purchases a police scanner and sets out to rid the streets of crime. Mark notices Victor coming home later and later, clothes torn and bloody, but lets it go. In fact, Mark seems to have also turned a new leaf by landing a new job.

But when the evidence of his vigilante activities grows impossible to hide, Victor confesses his powers to Mark. Mark immediately complains that the local drug dealer is terrified of Victor, and that Victors vigilantism could cause his pot connection to dry up. Victor is astonished by Marks indifference to the matter but is downright flabbergasted when Mark levitates a beer from the counter, and flies it across the room and into his hand. Mark has developed his own powers, and when Victor discovers thousands of unmarked dollars in Marks possession, tensions escalate.

The friends reach an uneasy truce: to maintain their dysfunctional but symbiotic arrangement, they will each engage in whatever activities they see fit, but simply not talk about it.

It all starts off well enough. But before long, Mark is bringing assorted criminals and danger-seeking buddies into the house. Victor, true to his word, turns a deaf earand soon finds himself romantically involved with Jenn, one of Marks colleagues. Victor allows Jenn into his inner sanctumhis roomwhere they smoke pot and laugh at the police scanner.

But its not long before Victor stumbles onto a dark truth about Jenn and Mark; one that leads to a final, deadly, roommate on roommate battle royale.
