Dark Figures

Oh my, where to start here?

The acting is as bad as the script - so at least there something went hand in hand. But what really made me cringe were the... "special effects" of the "evil shadow"-thingy... that simply looks like it was done with the wrong software - and (obviously) without any knowledge for sfx. Bad, simply bad, bad, bad.

I had a pretty good mood today (actually, before I started watching the movie) so let me say this kindly: Please. Please refrain from writing any more scripts and keep a good distance away from any camera. The bunch of you are simply no real filmmakers. And since I've have seen a lot of movies already, I dare to say that you will never be.

So now, where do I get my wasted time back?

Man I haven't seen a movie about shadow creatures this terrifying since that episode of Star Trek : Next Generation when Geordi Laforge turned into a shadow creature running around in clown shoes. This is is just as scary too!!!! 2/10

This movie is curious because none of the filmmakers or actors have any credentials in movie-making. Well you've got to start somewhere. However the fact that almost all of the initial 15 to 20 votes were "10" makes one suspect that the filmmakers and friends are up-voting this movie to make it seem better than it is. If they really did that, it is called "cheating."

Also very curious is that there were no "external" reviews for a long time but now there is one. And it says in summary, " While the movie does fall into The Blair With Project (1999) trap in that the premise is so similar and therefore there is no way to escape the comparison, Dark Figures ... though unfortunately, is far and away from surpassing or even meeting that groundbreaking horror classic.and that should always trigger some doubt."

But don't despair if it turns out to be a really bad movie, you can't fully appreciate good filmmaking unless you occasionally see some really ordinary or bad filmmaking.

Have to be honest after reading y'alls comments I was expecting wayyyyy worse. I had fun.

Is it a good horror movie no. But it's one of those so bad it's funny ones, that can be enjoyable in the right mood. It cracked me up at times.
