Synchronic

A mind-bending dive into time, trauma, and the uncanny effects of a designer drug, wrapped in the grit of New Orleans emergency life.

• Aaron Moorhead and Justin Benson’s most accessible film, blending sci-fi horror with grounded character work.
• Practical effects and inventive time travel sequences deliver a visceral, unsettling atmosphere.
• For fans of cerebral, low-budget genre twists — think a more straightforward follow-up to The Endless with a drug-addled time loop.
• Not perfect: narrative gaps and pacing may frustrate, but the emotional core and surreal visuals reward patient viewers.
