Twelve-year-old Owen “Rocket Man” Thom looks forward to the beginning of a magical 80s summer, celebrating his thirteenth birthday and riding BMX bikes with his Crew.

Owen zooms down a local dirt track, ready to break an all-time “max air” record when something goes wrong, leaving him injured.

That event kicks off a series of twisted, terrifying troubles.

In the nostalgic, coming-of-age vein of The Goonies, Stranger Things and Stephen King’s terrifying “It”, “The Almost-Apocalypse of Apple Valley” keeps you turning the pages and rooting for The Crew.
