  Such a suck ass movie. The acting and script are so awful it makes me nauseous. The entire plot was horribly executed as well. It was such a boring movie. I would also like the punch in the face whoever did the film editing. Some parts were trying to be suspenseful, but the film editing was so awful it seemed like the movie was having a seizure. In one part where the lights go off, the camera is focused on the father's bleeding hand, then it switches upstairs to the boy's room, then rushes outside and focuses on some swings in the rain (wtf??? so random), then goes back to the father's hand, then goes upstairs, then goes downstairs where the mother is trying to turn on the lights....it's like the movie has freakin ADD. This movie needs some medication. The potential was there, but everything else was not.

  Boring does not even begin to describe Darkness. Three times, I've attempted to watch the entirety of Darkness. Three times. The results? A brisk walk out of the movie theater after 20 minutes on attempt number one, a pleasant, unplanned nap after 24 minutes during attempt number two, and a quick trip to the garbage can to make a dvd "deposit" after the 30 minute mark on my final try. Netflix, I'm sorry I threw away your dvd, but I truly think that I did you (and the world) a favor.

  This is an ok thriller/horror.....but it's one of those that is all about the build up with a slightly disappointing ending. If you like ghost story type films you may enjoy it more.

  I thought the story to this was pretty good, but it just got really slow in some parts. But It's still a pretty good horror flick.

• Laura C

  
  Too convoluted to be scary or even entertaining.

• Jason S

  
  An effective, if not overly spooky. The premise is curious, but the delivery is poorly concieved. The cinematography is great though, and really sets the mood of creepiness and dread.

  Not as bad as many critics have said - it is true that it is disappointing in terms of plot and script but there is some creepy atmosphere occurring and the cast are good although outgunned by its weaknesses.

  A glacial and derivative horror/thriller that fails to do anything with its interesting (if routine) concept, Darkness is a strictly been-there-done-that inclusion to the Haunted House horror subgenre. While Balaguero manages to stage some briefly frightening moments, the end result is a hodgepodge of phony dialogue cut in-between pointless creepy moments. There are quite a few unintentional laughs scattered all over, and Balaguero has noticeable trouble in ably directing his performers, but there's nothing really atrocious on display here. Lena Olin and Anna Paquin have unquestionably been a lot better, but they are not bad enough to deserve mockery. Iain Glen, however, kind of sucks. Although I loved the subtle, anticlimactic conclusion, there's not much to recommend here. They tried making a scary movie; they failed. No big deal. Try again, guys.
