God of Pain

Sometimes you see a movie so bad that you wonder who actually thought it would be a good idea to make.

Ordinarily, I just ignore those. But sometimes you happen to look one of those movies on IMDB, and see that it has more fake positive reviews than any other movie you've ever seen. And then it inspires me to want to leave an honest review. That's this one.

Wooden acting, the cheapest possible production values, a "plot" (barely) that seems like it was written by a 12-year-old, this film is missing virtually everything that might make a film worth watching.

If only they'd spent money on actors, writing, and production instead of on fake IMDB reviews, this movie might have been only bad and not totally, offensively bad. And I wouldn't have felt a civic duty to point out just how fake so many of these reviews are.

I watch all types of horror , and this popped up on my Amazon movies I would like. I unfortunately paid the 6.99 to watch it. 1st attempted I fell asleep 12 minutes in 2nd time same scenario 3rd and last time I watched it I turned it off 1/2 way through. Between the Jenky acting, the " hellraiser pinhead one liners they blatantly ripped off,and the spirit Halloween special effects. I couldn't take it. This reminded me of a SCY-FY channel late night movie but worse! Save your time and money and pass on this one. The main characters make up is basically two masks on top of each other with oversized "hulk toy" fists.

It was a good idea...but clearly low budget and unfortunately very poor acting. Really confused on how this has such a high rating on RT. It must be a bunch of people who worked on the film or their friends and family. There is just no way everyone liked it that much. Honestly I'm a little disappointed I spent money on this, but I trusted all the positive reviews. Don't be fooled. Also no where in the description of this movie mention that it's an anthology....its a bit hard to get fully into the movie because each segment seems kind of rushed. Its not the worst thing I've ever seen, but it's by no means good.

"Algea: God of Pain" delves into the captivating realm of Greek mythology, specifically focusing on the lesser-known deity, Algea. The film intricately weaves together elements of drama, fantasy, and suspense, offering viewers a fresh perspective on ancient lore. With stunning visual effects and immersive cinematography, it transports audiences to a world where pain reigns supreme. The narrative unfolds with gripping intensity, exploring the complex dynamics between gods and mortals, and the consequences of invoking Algea's wrath. Stellar performances from the cast breathe life into the characters, particularly the enigmatic portrayal of Algea herself. While the pacing occasionally falters, the film's thematic depth and thought-provoking commentary on suffering make it a compelling watch. Overall, "Algea: God of Pain" is a mesmerizing cinematic experience that leaves a lasting impression.

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.
