Dan (17) - After viewing the previews for this movie, I figured it would be another house full of ghosts much like the Grudge, which I found to be quite good. I rarely get scared during movies, but the Grudge was... Full review

While Darkness is built on predictable plot turns, these are, in truth, the least of its problems. Her first clue that something is desperately wrong is that the electricity in the house tends to go out, whether or not a thunderstorm is raging (and Darkness features more than its share of storms, loud and wet). ...

it uses bits and pieces from all these better films in a vain attempt to create a uniqueness of its own.....Unfortunately, "Darkness" is nothing like a good, scary ghost story.....I love a good, scary ghost story.....Second, there's isn't a credible moment in the story.....But it doesn't succeed in doing much more than reminding us how many better movies on the subject have already been made..... ...
