Darkness Visible

Good horror film where things started to come to "light" closer to the end of the movie. I wanted to scream at the screen: Ronnie, go back to London! Ronnie, don't go down that dark alley!! Don't read or hear any spoiler alerts before watching.

Darkness Visible mostly takes place in India, with stunning establishing shots and displays of the beautiful architecture. India also serves as the backdrop to the horrifying and gruesome events happening in the film and it fits with its dark and gritty tone. The horror and suspense are fantastic, but what strikes me the most is the character of Ronnie and his journey as he goes to his roots and learns more about who he is. This movie is far from a story about someone re-discovering themselves after returning to their hometown in a traditional sense, but the core of the story is about just that. Ronnie has been cut out completely from his dark and troubling past and he is now forced to confront it. He learns more about his family and how he is connected to his hometown in more ways than he thought. The way that the supernatural is connected to that idea of going back to your roots is extremely unique and unlike anything I have ever seen before.

Not sure how that movie got so many good reviews .. Slow, slow action, really poor playing . Got me sleepy after first 30 min

I enjoyed this story. The actors and script were not without flaws but it was decent. It was slow but I thought that the suspense built with the pace well. I liked that there were several twists throughout the film and that each one kept my interest peaked. It was worth the watch.

Darkness Visible was a good movie, but it took a few days of coming back to it because it went very slow. The storyline, acting, location/set were all good. As for the story, I wouldn't say this is a knock off, but it reminded me of Angel Heart.
