The End of Oak Street (2026)

On July 10, 1982, aspiring novelist Denise Platt lives with her husband Greg, children Audrey and Brian, and dog Starbuck on Oak Street, in the suburban neighborhood of Flowervale, Michigan. The couple's marriage is strained—Denise privately contemplates divorce, while Greg lies about his work. He has told his family that he does pizza deliveries on the side, but it is actually his only job after being laid off.

The following day, Denise photographs a mysterious plant that suddenly appears in her neighbor's yard. Local librarian Mrs. Valcourt identifies it as Pleuromeia, a type of vegetation which went extinct millions of years ago. A giant pile of animal feces appears in neighbor Mel's yard. Radio broadcasts report increased solar-flare activity. During a storm, a powerful white light suddenly engulfs Flowervale neighborhood, accompanied by a change in atmospheric pressure and a power outage.

The next morning, Denise and Greg search for Starbuck, who went missing in the storm, and discover that Flowervale is surrounded by a prehistoric landscape from which dinosaurs emerge and start hunting and killing people in the neighborhood. Greg and Denise run back to their home while being chased by a vicious Coelophysis. The family boards up their windows and doors, and Audrey concludes the flashes of light were wormholes that transported the neighborhood millions of years into the past.

Greg reveals he is aware of Denise's wish to divorce and confesses to losing his job. They witness their neighbor Mel shooting at a flock of Pterodactylus from his roof with a revolver, before he is violently killed and eaten. Later, Brian and Audrey venture outside after Brian sees Starbuck in their yard. Denise and Greg follow in their car after realizing the children are missing; they crash it while trying to escape from a Spinosaurus, starting a fire. Jeannette Christiansen, Brian's neighborhood crush, joins Brian and Audrey after revealing her parents have been killed. Denise and Greg see a flash of light while searching for the children and follow it to a house containing a wormhole. They refuse to travel through the wormhole without their children, and it disappears. They evade a stampeding herd of dinosaurs, reconcile, and reunite with their children. The family heads back toward their home, but discover that the fire Denise and Greg had started now threatens to engulf the neighborhood.

When an Allosaurus attacks the group, Greg is killed while defending the others, leaving Denise and her children devastated. After returning home, the group escapes a Titanoboa and discovers another wormhole, on the roof of Mrs. Valcourt's house. They make their way to the house and observe that the wormhole appears and disappears at regular intervals. Jeannette jumps in and disappears, but Brian misses the opening and falls. An Ornithocheirus grabs him, but Starbuck appears and attacks it. The group attempts to shelter inside the house, but are cornered by a group of Ornithosuchus; Mrs. Valcourt appears and kills one of the Ornithosuchus with a double-barreled shotgun before being mauled by another, giving the group an opportunity to escape back up to the roof. They jump through the wormhole together.

They return to July 11, 1982, and land in a backyard swimming pool, approximately 20 minutes before Flowervale was teleported away. Denise tells the neighborhood's residents to leave the area by calling them from a payphone, while Jeannette runs off to warn her parents. Greg appears after Denise orders a pizza to their location, where he is embraced by her and their children. The powerful white light appears, engulfing the area before them as Flowervale disappears and is replaced by a prehistoric landscape.

Two years later, the military has contained the area while scientists study the prehistoric environment and its wildlife, attempting to investigate the wormholes. Denise's warnings to the disaster's survivors have made her a hero, and her book, titled The End of Oak Street, has made her family moderately wealthy. The film ends with the Platts and Christiansens having a barbecue with their neighbors and two identical Jeannettes.
