WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Brennan Camacho Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Mr. Movie Man I caught Deep Dark on Hulu a couple of nights ago, and I have to say, it was without a doubt a pleasant surprise. Upon viewing, I had no expectations of plot or talent. I simply chose it on the cover alone. It's rare in this day and age to get lucky when deciding a movie in this fashion, but lucky I was.Basic premise here is a down and out artist finds inspiration in a hole in a wall. Definitely, the type of story where you wonder what might be its inspiration. Kudos to the filmmakers for taking an idea that could have been off putting and turning it into something compelling. Not trying to spoil too much, but it really comes down to one scene. And yes, for those that've seen it, I'm talking about that "sex scene". Quote on quote because that's the best way to describe it I suppose, but that scene alone was reason enough for the title of this little review. And honestly, looking at the movie as a whole, it never goes in the direction you think it will which really is its charm in a nutshell.The movie is obviously low budget, but the acting, design and camera work were all sufficient. If you are looking for something different in the horror realm then I recommend this one. 8 out of 10 for originality alone.
Russ Hog This movie is terrible. It's about a guy who wants to be an artists and so he moves into an apartment in search in inspiration. There is a hole in the wall that may or may not have some demon inside that talks to him and helps make him a good artist. Soon - he has his art in the hands of the hot art dealer babe and he is on top of his game - and in no time flat there is hell to pay. The script is atrocious. The writer could have used some better dialogue and some more character development - but no such luck.There is a woman in this film who plays a hot art dealer and she is great. She is the only thing in the movie worth watching. I give this movie 1 stars for the script, acting and cinematography - and 2 stars because the actress who plays the art dealer was worth watching. In fact - this movie had been all about her - and how she falls in love with a new art guy - only to learn that he had sold his soul to the devil for his brilliance. Instead it was about him - and it sucked.
Lady Persephone I'm blown away by the glowing reviews given by some of the viewers of this film. (People who are part of the production team perhaps?) This movie has no redeemable qualities. The characters are incredibly one dimensional and unlikable. I believe this movie is making an attempt at being a horror comedy, however, it just ends up being extremely awkward for the viewer. No humorous moments. No scary moments. No thrilling moments. Just scene after scene of: When will we get to the point? SPOILER: It never comes. There is no explanation for why the wall talks, where it gets the items for the mobiles, what the finished mobiles even look like, why the wall bleeds, why the artist's uncle send him there... I could go on and on with the unanswered and pointless questions that arise in this movie. My suggestion: Save yourself some time and skip this movie.
quincytheodore Deep Dark is a movie tethering on the fringe of horror genre, it's like a modern art on some posh gallery that may be confusing because due to its odd nature. It doesn't work like many thriller or horror flicks and takes a bit of time to roll, albeit its short runtime. There's just an intrinsic draw as though something bizarre is popping up yet one can't avert their eyes, and that itself is already a more successful horror than most.Hermann (Sean McGrath) is an artist who's not particularly gifted. He tries hard to produce art to no avail. At some point his uncle rents him an apartment that doubles as a workshop. What he finds instead is a talking hole which presents him with artistic gift. This premise is so strange, it's almost satirically creepy.In fact, the movie doesn't remotely have the same mystery feel to it, barely having any scare at all. It may even turn into comedy foray at a couple of instances, as it mocks its own protagonist and his predicament. The desperate artist angle works incredibly well, showing that desperation can give birth to foolishly appealing choices.Without giving away much, this is one of the movies that relies on the quirky development, Deep Dark can be simplified into part haunting and part stalker theme. It's far from supernatural scares, so those expecting gripping thrill akin to Insidious might not find it here. The movie plays out in a type of fantasy, although it's still bizarre even for folklore premise.Deep Dark is amalgamation of the weirdest aspects from fantasy and mystery wired together like abstract art. The sheer oddity leaves a strangely interesting aftertaste. It's recommended for those searching for something different, and the short length fits a lazy weekend slumber like a finger, among other things, on a mysterious hole.
