“You’ve seen him, haven’t you?” “Seen whom?” Saban Films has revealed the trailer for horror mystery film The Portrait made in the UK, directed by filmmaker Simon Ross as his feature directorial debut. It will be heading to VOD directly to watch this fall if anyone wants to take a look. After her husband is devastated by a tragic accident, a devoted wife obsesses over a mysterious portrait that resembles him as he was; but when it starts to terrorize her, she must decide if it’s possessed or if she’s losing her mind. As with many horror films about grief, she must confront her deepest fears and unravel the unsettling truth before it’s too late… Starring Natalia Cordova-Buckley, Ryan Kwanten, Isidora Goreshter, with Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Virginia Madsen. This looks creepy, reminds me of The Night House, though not as unique or scary.
Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Simon Ross’ The Portrait, direct from YouTube:
In the aftermath of her husband’s devastating accident, a devoted wife becomes consumed by a mysterious portrait that resembles him in his happier days. However, as her obsession intensifies, the painting starts to unleash terror upon her life, leading her to question whether it is possessed by a malevolent force or if she is losing her sanity. Caught between the haunting unknown and her own distress, she must confront her deepest fears and unravel the unsettling truth before it’s too late. The Portrait is directed by English filmmaker Simon Ross, making his feature directorial debut after numerous other short films previously. The screenplay is written by David Griffiths. Produced by Christian de Gallegos and David Griffiths. Saban Films will debut The Portrait direct-to-VOD starting December 8th, 2023 this fall. Is anyone interested?
