God of Pain

Algea are Greek gods of sorrow and pain. What this movie does with that is pretty clever. We all have demons, and in this cold world, people rarely are forced to face their own. What if.....instead of death row, the most horrible criminals are sent to be judged by an ancient deity called Algea in a hell-like place.

The 7th terrace.....Algea's playground. If you've hurt good people willingly, if you've caused others needless pain, Algea will find a way to make you pay tenfold. But if you're innocent and wrongly convicted, he'll find that out also. You can't fool a god; he is a lie detector test and executioner all in one. So what would this look like in our justice system?

This movie is really beautifully done but also makes you think long after it's done. A+ on the cinematography, performances, and direction. Really atmospheric and darkly haunting also. Looking forward to seeing it again.

With a phenomenal concept and incredible assembly of a passionate cast and crew, God of Pain does a lot with a small budget. I loved the anthology of characters and each portrayal all being tied together in the framework of the Algea character.

While the occasional budget constraint might show through in a small part of a scene, there's no doubt that it only highlights the creativity on full display by the talented director, producers, and actors.

I'm excited to see more from Inglewood Films, and I have every confidence that this same team with a proper budget will deliver a unique, new horror villain audiences have been wanting for decades.

First off, 10/10 reviews? Are you friggin on acid + molly + lithium and god knows what else? "Seven" is a clear cut 10, I could waste my time and yours naming so many others. What sad little people have failed to watch REAL 10/10 movies that they toss that rating around like a baseball in the backyard with your little kid, lying to him, and yourself probably, that he's gonna play In the MLB someday lmao. Look, movie was decent, as mentioned by REAL reviewers (not friends of the writers and directors and s***), and is watchable, once, but these 8, 9, and FOR SURE 10 givers need mental testing (again, unless they're working for the filmmakers. Geezus, you'd expect this to win an Oscar with some of this BS. Anyhow, it's trippy, and a bit different, so if you're up late and can't find anything else, and have a jailbroken Firestick, give it a whirl. DAMN CERTAIN don't pay for it.

Thrilling, suspenseful, and has an undercurrent of philosophical depth.
