Review of Dark Mountain (2013) by Kevin G — 15 Oct 2014

After seeing this trailer nearly a year ago, I was really looking forward to finally seeing it. After though, I was very disappointed. The film-making aspect of the film was actually done fairly well with some nice shots of a bleak desert environment.

Ultimately though it felt like a movie the director wanted to look like an art house film instead of a legitimate horror movie. Many times I wondered why there wasn't more footage related to the main plot while the camera panned around looking at basically nothing while some uninspiring music plays in the background.

The characters themselves are not very likable either and the scary parts are pretty much nonexistent. Shame.
