Mackie and Jamie Dornan star in the mind-bending new film Synchronic from cult-movie directors Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead.
Steve (Mackie) and Dennis (Dornan) are paramedics and best friends who discover that a dangerous party drug is causing some horrifying deaths.
When Dennis’s daughter mysteriously disappears, Steve uncovers a terrifying truth surrounding the drug that will alter his perception of reality, and time itself.
Fans of Benson’s and Moorhead’s past work which includes the films Spring (2014), and The Endless (2017) will have a lot to get excited about here, especially considering the long break between films.
Armed with a much larger budget and some name power, Synchronic looks to showcase the directing duo’s hypnotic style of storytelling to a wider audience.
It appears the directors have revisited the theme of time with this one, much like in The Endless, which itself was a thought-provoking, mind-bending movie, and just like that film, the audience will no doubt be kept guessing the whole way through.
Synchronic looks like it features a strong blend of sci-fi with horror and drama, and will likely make for a nice escape from mainstream cinema.
