    Genre-by-numbers Saturday night shocker

    Can a horror film be scary and boring at the same? The Dark has an extremely good effort – about equivalent to lifting one's little finger. The plot shows all the attention span of someone reading a Welsh mythology after smoking several reefers. Formulaic scare-mongering knocks you out of your seat at regular intervals, though without enlivening the story or characters much, the most interesting of which, a girl called Ebrill, is temporarily back from the dead after a number of misled churchgoers and nigh on a flock of sheep have been offered in her place.

    Young Sarah arrives with her mum at a remote cottage on the Welsh coast where her dad is staying. Legends, hallucinations, nightmares of sheep and people going over a nasty bit of cliff abound and we hear of how it might be possible for some people to pop back and forth between this world and the next – at a price.

    Director John Fawcett, who showed promise and originality with Ginger Snaps, has here gone for banality enlivened by the most unashamed editing. If you flash a very sudden, very bright image at someone, and simultaneously make a very loud noise, they will jump. Traditionally, filmmakers have used this technique to emphasise a plot turn – the appearance of the bogey-man, monster, serial killer. Fawcett doesn't bother, he just inserts it. One minute you're watching the sleep-inducing story and the next you are shocked awake by a loud crash together with a bright light. Explain it to yourself as a deep insight into the unsteady mind of one of the characters? Well if I was a character in such an insipidly put together movie I'd probably need to be deranged for fun too. The trouble with this technique is that there is no plot momentum to keep you excited until the next loud bang. After the first two, I started trying to predict the next one (wait for a false alarm, then a lull, then the bang) and with reasonable accuracy till I lost interest.

    It picks up a bit towards the end, and the scares are scary, however contrived. All in all it's standard Saturday night horror fare, nothing that special. If you don't mind the clichés, sit back and go whaaaaaa (as I did!)

    The Dark, pretty good movie to watch

    This movie was pretty good. The acting was very good since they had a good cast. I enjoyed the girl playing the daughter and the other girl that comes later in the flick. We got a chance to see this movie for free, so no worries. It's worth renting if your in the mood for a suspenseful flick. It goes along with movies like half-light where a mother is stressing over their child for some reason or another. It could have been a lot better. The script was lacking in some parts, and the end was somewhat lackluster and confusing. I like it, nonetheless, but probably wouldn't watch it again. I'd suggest renting it though if your in the mood for a suspense flick.

    enjoyably suspenseful

    OK while not a great film it is very suspenseful. i saw this movie almost 3 month's ago at the Cardiff film festival an i can tell u that the cinema was packed an at the end of the film it got a great applause because of the suspense it held throughout the film! on the whole a throughly enjoyable film i found this too be a film with a level of suspense that i have not seen in many supposed thrillers in a number of years. yes i'll agree that the film didn't have a storyline that truly linked together but this is becoming a much more common trend in many films now. Also the film is made all the more enjoyable because it is a British made film showing the quality of films that can come out of this country when we try to make a good film.

    Awful.

    It's a confusing movie with a poor story. I felt I was watching the wrong movie when I stepped into the theater. It took me some time until I could realize what was really happening.

    Plus, mentioning the Welsh mythology sounded more like an excuse to hook the story.

    Although it contains some disturbing images, it is not scary at all. Well said: 'when a film has to relay on loud music and flashy imagery to scare people then the film isn't scary'. So, that's the whole truth about this movie. I expected something better.

    I am completely disappointed.

    THE DARK (John Fawcett, 2005) **1/2

    I had enjoyed Fawcett's knowing revision of the werewolf myth in GINGER SNAPS (2000), but wasn't really expecting much out of yet another ghost story (which, in recent years, have flooded the horror market from all over the world). Still, it turned out to be a pleasant surprise which, given my initial skepticism, managed to win me over with its intriguing - if highly derivative - plot line, good performances (by all five main actors but especially Maria Bello, in a difficult and rather unsympathetic role, and the two ill-treated girls) and the unfamiliar seaside Welsh setting.

    As a matter of fact, the film borrows and mixes together elements from a wide variety of classic and cult horror/fantasy titles - ORPHEUS (1950), DON'T LOOK NOW (1973), THE WICKER MAN (1973) and THE BEYOND (1981) - and even features a Bernard Herrmannesque score! Unfortunately, it becomes confusing towards the end and the final twist feels rather like one too many trips to the well; actually, I much preferred the serene (and more balanced) alternate ending!

    Despite some editorial flourishes throughout and the occasional cheap shock, the film's tone is generally low-key and introspective; far removed from the hipness of GINGER SNAPS, it's undeniably a more mature work.

    • Trivia
      Annwn or Annwyn (pronounted "a-non") is the land of the dead, the underworld or Afterlife, in Welsh mythology. It is said to lay far in the west and could be accessed by the living through a door located at the mouth of the Severn once a year. Surviving from pre-Christian Celtic mythology, it's neither Heaven nor Hell in the Christian sense, and the living can enter spiritually or corporeally.
    • Errores
      Ebrill is consistently mispronounced as 'Ebrith' ('Ebrydd' in Welsh, although there is no such Welsh word). There is no English equivalent for 'll' but it should be pronounced as something closer to 'Ebrych', similar to the 'ch' as in the Scottish 'loch' (although that sound also exists in Welsh).
