While on the job at an abandoned Chicago office building, four electrical workers -- Dean (
Richard Grieco), Ray (
Richard Yearwood), Junior (
Jason Jones), and Sheldon (
Jeff Douglas) -- stumble upon a time portal. Instantly, Dean and Junior disappear, rematerializing in a modernistic alternate Chicago. Soon after, Ray and Sheldon follow their buddies -- a bad mistake, inasmuch as this parallel world is ruled by cannibalistic, spider-like humanoids. The four heroes link up with a group of survivors of the spider invasion, led by Dr. Morelli (
Colin Fox), Elena (
Kate Greenhouse), and Crane (
David Newman). Will they be able to escape the rampaging arachnids and return to their own world, or will they be betrayed by a spy in their midst and delivered up to the omnivorous Spider Queen? Bearing more than a passing resemblance to the TV series
Sliders, the made-for-cable
Webs debuted June 28, 2003, on the
Sci-Fi channel.
