I’d hate to put down a movie like this, but “Alone in the Dark” is just plain terrible. The film is not developed very well, and when combined with some bad acting (see Tara Reid) and boring creatures (which look like mutated raptors from Jurassic Park), you get a waste of perfectly good film reels. Well, here’s your warning: I was alone in the dark theater during a prime-time showing so that should tell you something. Use your money instead for renting two good movies from the movie store.
As expected, due to the plot this film does not get awarded with the Dove seal. There are close to fifty profanities and probably close to that many deaths also. Tara Reid’s acting should be added to the objectionable content. I hope the producers got a discount. There is lots of gunfire and people are killed in various gruesome ways by the creatures. I do not recommend that anyone view this movie, for any reason at all.
