The Power

The Power is an excellent thriller/horror hybrid that uses the mystery of what is going on to draw the audience in and keep them invested in the film. At its heart, it is a psychological thriller built upon the shifting loyalties and hidden motivations of its central characters. When it shifts gears into more visceral horror late in the game, it does so naturally and in a way that makes complete sense within the story. A strong cast, headed by an amazing and dedicated performance by Grace Vallorani, contributes greatly to the success of the film. Those looking for a creepy, disturbing, and thought-provoking psychological horror film that does not shy away from the gore when it is called for should be sure to check out.

Fans of Rosemary's Baby and Hereditary cannot miss this powerful horror movie. Abducted and imprisoned by a cult, Magda awakens in a filthy cell. Despite hearing distant voices, her screams for help go unanswered. In time, she befriends another hostage, a girl who provides some comfort, while the cult prepare their demonic dark ritual. A compelling dark and great film made by Paul Hills with such a great cast. Valentine Pelka is marvellous as the main villain in it. So cold and calculating that he's entertaining the whole way through. Very dark ending as well which leaves the audience wanting more.

I really enjoyed this movie. This has some fantastic actors in it. Great talented crew behind this beautiful work of art. It's a shame it never got to a dvd or Blu-ray release. Valentine Pelka is so wonderful as the villain in this feature. One of my favourite on screen villains. It wasn't just a typical horror. It has meaning behind it and overall I thought this movie is underrated. More movies like these please.

I checked this out really just to support an online friend of mine who has a small part in the film and I was pleasantly surprised with how good this film is! It's a low budget British indie horror film which is a slow burner character driven psychological horror about a satanic cult. I'm not usually a fan of slow burners, but the performances and very dark theme meant I never got bored and the finale was extremely dark and shocking. I highly recommend it

The central actors, the two female leads, excellent. I bought into the story and given the acting by the two women, and their relationship, I carried on being entertained. When our lead, is so close to...okay, I can't say it but it was all good! The dialogue good, our male lead, also good. The final 2 scenes were not as strong; the ending felt rushed. It was a disappointment for me.

I had stumbled across The Power and was surprised by it. NO, no cats were hurt in the making of this film - that, they made very obvious. Solid four star film for me. LIKE!
