    The Prince of Darkness...

    BLIGHT is a great short film about a priest who is sent to a remote island in order to execute an exorcism in a young pregnant woman.

    The cinematography is very good for a short.

    It makes us submerge in a dark and moody atmosphere the entire plot, and there's a great final twist, which turned it even better in my opinion!

    It can create more tension and develop a solid and coherent plot than many long features...

    The production and the CGI are also good for a short film.

    I score it 7/10

    An example for a great short film

    This short film tells a dark story that succeeds in captivating the spectator, with a decent amount of terror, great lines, excellent performances and cinematography.

    This is a story about a pregnant girl who is possessed by the devil. Her family asks a priest for help to get rid of the demon.

    Seems like a common exorcism story, but the direction team managed to insert great additional elements and surprises in so little time. The script has some "turn of the tide" moments, leaving the viewer without certainties about the closure.

    A good introduction for a long film, or to keep the pace in a short film marathon.
