Spirits in the Dark

Absolute B Grade movie, nothing impressive.. very dull and meaningless movie... Acting is horrible and storyline is not good

Yes indeed, very predictable... Someone in the comments section stated that this movie "over-stayed it's welcome" and they're absolutely correct, after 45 minutes of creeping around this guy's unshakeable bravery finally got tested... Oh well, I don't have to tell you what happens next bcuz you already know next....

Brilliant cinematography, great atmosphere, but sometimes it feels too long despite being only 70 minutes including credits. Not exactly a horror, but rather a dramatic ghost story with average acting and a nice twist.

Ok, I gave it 5 stars because I had to take in equation its microbudget, and considering what it managed to do with that, I think it is a fairly decent effort.

Spirits in the Dark is a good example of less is more, it has only 70 minutes, big fan of this idea, never overstretch it in order to appear more professional, if you need just 80 or 70 minutes to tell the story right, do so, don't bore me. It relied completely on first person perspective, and it was done so in good taste, overall it is a good production that couldn't do more. Of course, we have the eternal example of Blairwitch, where the tiniest of budgets managed to change find footage perspective, but lets be honest, no one is expecting that to repeat.

So all in all, I can't recommend this one, because it has little to offer, but for anyone interested in how to make a horror, how to lay down the grounds for one, how to take one simple idea, place it in the most of neutral surroundings, and have your movie without actors...well Spirits in the Dark is a prime example of just that. Hats off to those involved in the making of it and looking forward for more of your work in the future.

Cheers!

I love the fact that the writer/director/star doesn't look like your typical lead in movies today. I sat here watching this and knowing that I've seen that face and heard the distinctive accent and even though I was not sure when or what movie it was from but I had a feeling that what ever it was I enjoyed it. I didn't want to pull out IMDb during this movie so I waited. I enjoyed this and while I to think it was a little to long I can't fault the people who made it as any shorter it wouldn't be long enough to be feature length. But the understated nature of the film builds the creepy feeling. If you like creepy more than scary this will work for you and if you like horror without gore this is your movie as well. Look for the other film from this writer/director/lead it's called Moth and it's from 2016. It is Mothman but has little to nothing to do with Mothman of WV. That to is a well crafted story with fine acting and it was far better than I anticipated.
