REVIEWS:
"Samantha Aldana’s short is beautifully shot and does well to build up tension whilst keeping our alien visitors largely in the shadows, adding to their mystique...." - Bloody Flicks
​
"With outstanding visuals and an incredibly engaging story, “Angels” is beautifully shot, well-acted, and spellbinding. More unnerving than overtly scary, this seven-minute film is nevertheless quite a masterful work of short horror filmmaking." - Morbidly Beautiful
​
"...Angels taps into themes of faith, life after death, and whether we’re alone in the universe. This short film will hit particularly close to home for anyone who’s ever been a caregiver to an ailing family member. It has probably the most interesting premise of any of the short films here, but all it does it make us want more." -Halloween Year Round
