Review of Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (2010) by Arkonblade — 05 Jan 2012
A decent horror film although id call it more of a creature film and del toro I believe refers to it as well as being that . The movies pacing and acting are all pretty well done and I like how we get to see the creatures early on yet not a complete look .
to me the whole wait to the last 10 min of the movie to show the monster or monster's in this case has worn out its welcom a long long long time ago. sure it was great in jaws but movies like super 8 and cloverfield where you never ever really get a nice good look at the creature always disappoints me even at the end its always abit murky of a view.
the plot is told well and thats usally another thing in theese movies is that they are just full of plot holes and most of the stuff is just never explained like in say cloverfield's case none of it is.
this movie atleast left me feeling ok I understood whats all goin on hear at the end. I mean this move didnt break any ground and its nothing id really want to wach again any time soon but its fairly entertaining and worth a rental.
