Portal short film is amazing
This seven minute live-action Portal-inspired short film is possibly the best game-to-movie conversion you’ve ever seen.
One and a half years in the making and boasting some impressive visual effects, check out Portal: No Escape below.
FirstShowing reports the film comes courtesy of Dan Trachtenberg, also responsible for The Totally Rad Show, with a score by Inception composer Mike Zarin. The actor featured is one Danielle Rayne, and the short was first shown at ComicCon.
Clearly “man makes movie” isn’t news but the buzz on this thing today is thoroughly well deserved. Thanks, ShiroGamer (among others).

Reminded me of Saw the first few seconds.
The Portal gun is a bit long though.

Nice special effects, but it bored the crap out of me.
