The Darkness (2016)★★★★☆

I’m surprised I only just learned this existed. It’s got a pretty high-profile cast (Radha Mitchell and Kevin Bacon are the stars, but Paul Reiser and Ming Na-Wen make cameos as well!) and apparently a decent production crew.

And you know, it was pretty good. The acting was believable and the antagonists were super creepy. I like movies that seem to have done some research into the mythology used in the plot. Like this one.

It was well paced and not too graphic or disturbing. All in all, this is a really good recent scary movie – not just another slasher film.
