It did take me a while to get into the flow of Dark Spirits; it is very slow-moving. The blurb I read called it heart-stopping and that is one thing it definitely is not. It's not very scary either with just a couple of The Ring-type jumps and there is some pretty bad editing. But it does have a little creep factor, some atmosphere, an interesting leading lady and the city of Prague as its backdrop. I'll add that the story is confusing so you might really want to pay attention. I do think I understood the plot in the end although maybe I didn't. Still and all, I thought it could use another IMDb review to add some balance. I've seen a lot worse than Dark Spirits.

This film is easily the worst film I've ever seen it's as about as interesting as watching paint dry. No wait even worse than that it's as bad as watching paint that's already dry. To start the images on the box of the girl and the house rant even in the film so I felt completely conned as that's what I paid to see. Also Nothing happens throughout the who film just people talking and drinking cups of tea. Nothing happens until the last five minutes and when the s**t does hit the fan you don't even care. Another note is every time you think it's about to get interesting it just disappoint's for example it sets it up for a sex scene but instantly cut's to afterwards and instead we see the main character drinking a cup off tea, how very interesting. To conclude this is the most boring film you will ever see. Seriously keep away from this garbage.

'Dark Spirits' set in Prague, is way better than the average rating on IMDb. Not sure why it's hated it so much (and have seen far worse). The film has some creepy vibes (and a little promise) but found the soundtrack too overpowering and in places where silence would have been more effective. As the film moves on (at quite a slow pace), it becomes quite disjointed and harder to keep tabs on the characters. I know this is what the director intended but it's going to lose some viewers along the way.
