Review of Beneath the Darkness (2012) by Randy C — 14 Mar 2012

Dennis Quaid can sure pick-em at times. As much as I like him, he's terrible in this. Too say he's the wrong choice for the character would be to give the script too much credit because it's abysmal. Why does Quaid make these poor choices? He's so unbelievable as this psycho killer, & one might argue that that's the thing about serial killers - they seem so average & normal that no one ever suspects them. Still, he doesn't seem right for the part.

Is he having trouble getting decent roles? The story is incredibly stupid yet it seems to be wanting us to take it seriously. Real cops would at least check the kids story out properly, I mean these are heavy allegations & someone did die of unnatural causes. There should have been an autopsy at least. ALL the adults are stupid because even I believe the kid when he tells what he saw. After watching this movie I can see why it got such a low rating.
