Review of Cryo

Cryo (2022)
5/10
Ninth Hell
8 December 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Five people wake up from a cryo sleep. They have no memories of their names. Eventually, they remember their occupations. They don't know the year and are buried underground. They have limited food. There are religious themes running through the film. One man (Curt Doussett) believes the Creator of the experiment is still alive. The others believe he is dead. There is a Dante's Infernal book on the table. As they await the return of the Creator, the film marvelously feels like a combination of "Waiting for Godot" and "No Exit." Food is going missing. The doctor is ill and is dying. They believe someone else is down there with them. There is also a stash of food behind a door with a keypad. If only they had the number.

Fair plot but the lack of lighting and editing made the film almost unwatchable. BTW John Wick used Dante in his film. PLOT SPOILER: The ending was a Sisyphus twist.

Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.
