Did you know
- TriviaThe story was written after director David A. Roberts' friend passed away during the pandemic. When told he couldn't see his friend because of the quarantine, he was instead informed that they could have a video call the next day instead.

The story of Older Gods was written in Davids grief and guilt of not being able to talk to his friend before it was too late and ultimately discover what people are willing to do to try and remove that weight of guilt.
Featured review
A drama with horror scenes
Older Gods is a cool little movie that seems to me to be more of a drama piece than a flat out horror.
Not saying its not creepy, there is a nightmare scene that really freaked me out as well as a couple of other really dark scenes but its more of a study on survivor guilt and loss.
Rory Wilson did a lot by himself, hes pretty much in every scene, most of the time by himself, and its a really great performance and it will be really interesting to see what projects he does in the future.
Its not the type of horror I usually watch but I watched it on my phone on a journey and I liked how weird it was.
It would have been interesting to see what the film would be like if it had a larger budget.
The final shot has a great 'oh s**t' moment.
