Lycanthropy (2020) offers a gritty take on the crime genre, brimming with a bleak atmosphere that really immerses you in its world. The narrative follows Detectives Kessler and Mills as they delve into the unsettling mystery of a missing girl, but Kessler's deviation from standard procedures adds an intriguing layer. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing tension to simmer before boiling over. There's this raw edge to the performances, especially Kessler’s desperation which really drives the film. The practical effects here are noteworthy too; they add a touch of authenticity to the darker themes. It’s distinct in its exploration of justice, morality, and the lengths one might go for those they care about. A unique entry in the crime genre.
