Cryptids are fascinating creatures, regardless of whether you believe in their existence or not. From Mothman and Bigfoot to the Fresno Nightcrawler and the Flatwoods Monster, these fantastical beasts have captured our imagination. In her feature film debut, Kryptic, director Kourtney Roy channels that fascination into her own creature full of ectoplasm and gooey ooze.
In the new film:
Kay (Chloe Pirrie) 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 on 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.
In our exclusive clip from the film, Kay has a run-in with something strange in the Canadian woods…

In her review of the film, Dread Central’s Mary Beth McAndrews wrote,
Kryptic is a monster movie unlike anything you’ve ever seen, both heartbreaking and erotic, a tale about the shattering of time and space. While its slow pace and strange side narratives may deter some, those who tune into the film’s frequency will find themselves sucked into the world of the Sooka and ready to find themselves in the nearest forest.
Kryptic is out now on digital from Well Go USA.
