Dark Figures

This is a terrible movie. I don't know how the rating was any higher than 2....at best. 40 minutes, over half of this decrepit movie, is just watching 5 20 somethings talking. Nothing interesting. Back story, nope. Character development, nope. More like watching some irritating "influencers" talking about whatever the hell their lives are about. Well, honestly, as far as the character developing managed to absolutely develop my wanton longing for each and every one of them to somehow meet their demise. The fabled "demon" in the flick is *SP0ILER* -----------------a worthless cgi shadow of any given character. Or.....a person painted in dark black makeup.

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

Kelly McCart - playing Hanna in the movie - was one of the single worst actresses I've ever had the displeasure to witness. The rest of the cast is not impressive, save for perhaps above singing performance by the character of Mia. Hanna, however, brings forth a singular disaster of a performance, made no greater by the rest of the shambles of the movie.

I love low budget found footage horror movies, so don't take this as criticism from a high-browed scholar of film. Rather, view this in the light of someone who *likes* low budget movies with amateur acting, telling you that this is NOT worth it. The monsters are lame, the plot is ill explained, and Kelly McCart's spectacularly terrible performance makes me wish a petition could be signed to ban her from future filmwork.

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

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?
