Review of Portrait of God

7/10
Darkness and faith; an excellent combination.
28 March 2023
Excellent horror short film, unique and terrifying, that manages to capture the viewer's attention through the use of curiosity and morbidity, while playing with the faith and hope of a religious person. It is admirable how the director has used the presence of the creature and the ambiguous power of darkness to create an atmosphere of tension and fear, without resorting to sudden or unnecessary scares. Instead, he has skillfully handled darkness and uncertainty to keep the audience on edge. The setting and atmosphere generated by the scarcity of lighting, excessive darkness, and eerie tone, along with the presence of the terrifying creature, contribute significantly to the creation of such a spine-chilling work. My congratulations to the director for such an impressive work.
