Kryptic
SYNOPSIS
Kay is in trouble. A strange encounter in the woods has left her with no memory. Only one thing is certain: she is the spitting image of missing monster hunter, Barb Valentine. When an intruder breaks into her house, she runs, with no idea where she’s going; but she knows her only chance to reconnect is to shed more light onto Barb’s mysterious disappearance. Random encounters seem to point her in the right direction, but what was hoped to be a journey of self-discovery gradually becomes a hunt for the monster itself.
REVIEWS
- Rogerebert.com: Chloe Pirrie is impressive as Kay Hall, a woman who goes on a trek to find a mysterious Bigfoot-like creature who may have run off with a local scientist.
- Eyeforfilm.co.uk: Some fantastic original work by the special effects team. Not only are these scenes rather glorious in themselves, but they reveal an unusually positive side to alienation as the film gradually tips into a celebration of what its protagonist might discover by leaving her old identity behind.
- Projectedfigures.com: This is what makes Kryptic as much a 'good for her' revenge story as a monster movie, where close attention is required to chart the precise coordinates of Kay's picaresque, escapist walk on the wild side.
- Sunshinestatecineplex.com: Pirrie is able to convey her character’s fear, confusion, and vulnerability through facial expression alone.
- Scariesthings.com: The main draw of the film is Pirrie's outstanding performance as a woman whose brush with a mysterious entity thrusts her into a mystical world in which time is bent.
