Review of The Dark

I think it was an interesting movie. OK, it had some old-fashioned scares like clapping windows and loud blasts from the speakers in it, but I liked the story about the Walish Mythology. It would seem, that the movie could have been made quite a bit better though. What I really liked a lot was the fantastic Landscape and the atmosphere of the movie. The part where people where jumping off the cliff with their bags packed was spooky as was the light-effects of the world of the dead. I didn't quite get the ending, but I liked the idea that the mother was not aware of being dead. What I really disliked about the movie was its camera. Maybe it was just because I have a cold these days, but I was really getting sick from the shaky hand-held camera movements. But maybe it was the intention of the makers to let me feel seasick - fitting to the scenery ;-)
