Gray Matter (2018) is a low-budget science fiction thriller that blends elements of suspense, superpowers, and government conspiracy. Directed by Greg A. Sager, the film attempts to tackle themes of human experimentation and psychic abilities within a tight, indie framework.
The story revolves around a man named Sira, who is on the run with his daughter, Ayla. Both possess powerful psychic abilities, the result of a secretive government experiment known as “Project Gray Matter.” The central conflict emerges as they are pursued by agents who want to harness or neutralize their abilities.

Gray Matter (2018) is a serviceable indie sci-fi thriller with an engaging concept but held back by its limited resources and execution. Fans of low-budget sci-fi who are forgiving of rough edges might find it worth watching, but it won’t stand out among stronger films in the genre.
