The film follows a writer's unwitting discovery of the history and secret efforts of a cult in Victoria, Canada that has been engaged in a 60 year effort to open a portal between our world and another, letting in a host of vicious inter-dimensional beings. The city of Victoria was rumored in the 1980's to be the second worldwide 'capital of Satanism' after Geneva, Switzerland. Dark Paradox explores the idea that this myth was not only partially true but also partially inaccurate in suggesting the cult activity was 'Satanic' when in fact it was based on the worship of ancient extraterrestrial 'elder gods' in the vein of HP Lovecraft's fiction.

Coming Attractions is a short film consisting of 4 interlinked fake movie trailers, each done in a different style.

The third, 'La Venganza del Diablo Azul' features the luchador El Diablo Azul revived from the dead to seek revenge against those who murdered his family, and the fourth and final trailer, 'V-Squad Part 2' returns to the V-Squad as they face an army of vicious extra-terrestrial mutants.
