Dark Light

Decent and convincing enough acting, most of the creature effects were well done in my opinion apart from the first time you see it, I just thought bloke in a rubber suit, it's not going to be something you'll remember but it's entertaining enough to keep your attention, I was wondering what the creature itself was based on most of the movie!

I'll take into account that this was an independent film, therefore assuming there wasn't much of a budget. On the plus side, the story was pretty decent, as was the scenario the characters all found themselves in, the sense of mystery was pretty good at times, it had atmosphere.

Onth debit side, the lack of budget was the issue, the effects and sets weren't that great, and at times the acting seemed a little off somehow. Editing and lighting could have been better, that creature needed a much lower level of lighting.

For a boring Thursday afternoon it filled a void, to some degree, 5/10

I don't like to give movies bad reviews - BUT this really isn't very good.

A mother and her young daughter move back into the mother's old family home. Immediately odd things begin to happen, noises and strange lights. The little girl gets taken, no one believes the mother that it's aliens.

The aliens in this movie are quite cool, I liked them. The effects are not too good and it's all a bit cliché. The acting isn't very good.

It's a watchable B movie if there's not too much else to do.

Ok, this little movie here started absolutely great, amazing execution for such a production, lovely tension build up, and managed to keep up this fast pace for quite a while. But the last part, it is quite disappointing actually, perhaps there was less room for imagination and they had to settle for an ending that did not deliver, created huge plot holes and had the viewer genuinely asking, What is happening and why?

Dark Light managed to create a tiny world for itself, with its own rules, but most of it went down the drain once the third act came in place, and I can't stop wondering how things derailed so much. I am still going to recommend it for it is an effort far better than most, even tho it feels like a let down in the very end, it does deserve more attention and perhaps some praise as well.

In the future, I hope the people involved in the making of Dark Light, take some extra time in order to offer their next projects a more constant tone, till the credits show up.

Cheers!

Seen worse but ok. Typical creature feature. I like horror and sci fi butvI also notice little nitpicks. First one is interior doors make the usual clicking noise when closed but there are no doorknob latches on any of the doors but they have to turn doorknob to open. Sheriff is a Sergeant which never happens. She would have had stars instead of stripes. As for movie itself. If bored and nothing to watch then ok.
