Darkness Visible

Darkness Visible mostly takes place in India, with stunning establishing shots and displays of the beautiful architecture. India also serves as the backdrop to the horrifying and gruesome events happening in the film and it fits with its dark and gritty tone. The horror and suspense are fantastic, but what strikes me the most is the character of Ronnie and his journey as he goes to his roots and learns more about who he is. This movie is far from a story about someone re-discovering themselves after returning to their hometown in a traditional sense, but the core of the story is about just that. Ronnie has been cut out completely from his dark and troubling past and he is now forced to confront it. He learns more about his family and how he is connected to his hometown in more ways than he thought. The way that the supernatural is connected to that idea of going back to your roots is extremely unique and unlike anything I have ever seen before.

Not sure how that movie got so many good reviews .. Slow, slow action, really poor playing . Got me sleepy after first 30 min

This movie is well worth watching! A great diversion from American horror that seems to be out of fresh ideas! If I say anymore it would spoil it for those of you that have not seen it yet. It kept a great pace, and explained things well enough so that each scene flowed into the next one nicely! Good story line, and dialogue was decent. I know so very little about the India culture so the stories twists and turns were fast enough moving to hold the interest in the story line. Truly worth the time to watch.

A supernatural horror movie with a good story, visual quality and interesting ending. Do watch it till the end where everything will be revealed.

Darkness Visible offers viewers the unique opportunity of experiencing a horror film in a rather exotic setting. The backdrop of bustling streets in India and intricate city streetways compliment the films fast-paced nature, as you follow main character Ronnie in his pursuit of the truth about his mother's murder. The many plot twists throughout the film do not deter, but rather capture the audience's attention, encouraging them to formulate their own conclusions and theories about what is going on. Director Neil Biswas employs rather dark and graphic visuals to convey an overwhelming sense of darkness, as the movie title implies, and suspense, throughout the film. This unique depiction of the classic "supernatural murder mystery" shows promise for the future of the horror genre and Biswas's talents, distinguishing himself and his movie in a category of film that appears to be oversaturated.
