Sinister Screens

The Portrait (2023) ★★

Slow burn to mediocrity. I thought it was more effective as a psychological thriller than horror. Some might call it supernatural, but not so much in my opinion. I had a hard time caring about any of the characters, though the acting was fine.

Rating: ★★ (out of 5)
