When a late‑night meteor shower lights up the New Mexico sky, a young mineralogist student named Paul Carlson is struck in the head by a tiny shard of a meteor, and turns him into a nocturnal nightmare, moonwalking as a scaly saboteur across Albuquerque. Kathy and Johnny Longbow stew over a cure before the next full moon triggers his final metamorphic meltdown. As moonlit nights approach, strange symptoms, eerie legends, and some serious desert mystery collide in a tale that blends lab coats, folklore, and a classic creature feature vibe.
