About the film:
World Premiere, 2023 Sitges Film Festival. After a top-secret experiment goes wrong, a hyper-intelligent invisible raptor escapes the lab and begins wreaking havoc in the surrounding neighborhood. When the creature’s identity is uncovered, it soon becomes clear that a disgraced paleontologist—alongside his ex-girlfriend, an unhinged amusement park security guard, and a local celebrity chicken farmer—is the town’s only hope for surviving the raptor’s ravenous rampage.
Written by Mike Capes and Johnny Wickham.
“A joyously silly, sure-fire crowd-pleaser of an (invisible) monster movie, elevated above simple parody by careful direction, clever writing and an incredibly likable cast.”
—Ben Robins for HeyUGuys
