Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Matho The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Leofwine_draca DARK NATURE is misadvertised as a slick, sick horror film but in reality it's a talky drama in which very little happens. As such it's something of a tedious watch, lacking in both interest and intent, a film which makes good use of the wild Scottish locations but does absolutely nothing else. The unfolding of the plot is slow and long-winded and the characters are very uninteresting with the actors struggling to give them life. There's really not much reason to watch when there are so few elements of interest in the entire film.
Seb I love horror movies and I don't mind a good thriller but this is neither. I realised halfway through that I was watching a virtual remake of an equally pointless Italian flick I'd already seen. I was hoping I was wrong but I wasn't, this is every bit as witless and shares the same pathetic ending.Rip up the first 40 minutes of this film and throw it away, it has no bearing on the rest of the movie. There's some killings rendered dull by the flat pace and boring killer. There's some victims but they are completely dull and lifeless too.To cap it off there's a message about the world cleansing itself or something and pure crap that is too. It doesn't even make sense within the confines of the dreamlike situation it tries to create. This is a pitiful boring movie and anyone rating it over two stars is most definitely in it, directed it or just has no taste in movies. Don't waste your time, it's beyond terrible.
polly-574-714733 Sometimes we can all get carried away with comparisons, budgets and all sorts of genre comments. For me it was a good night's - THE NIGHT BEFORE HALLOWEEN ESPECIALLY - entertainment and although perhaps it could have been shorter - so to too (in my opinion) could District 9 (oh dear I am doing it now). The scenery, shooting viewed as a Scot was a highlight and although it may not encourage the tourists to stay in secluded spots it was much more refreshing to watch than "oh know not another US city being torn apart by earthquake, storm, flood etc. etc." Those who did leave I'd say, better and worse films will continue to be walked out of, but I certainly for one enjoyed it and I stayed to the end and "no" my brother wasn't acting in it! I will look out for the director in the future!
Mascherano Family holidays may frequently be a recipe for disaster, and this simple and effective thriller takes this maxim to its natural conclusion. A moderately dysfunctional family of mum, new boyfriend and kids drive out into the countryside to visit her mother for a holiday. Little do they know what they are getting themselves into.Director Marc de Launay and writer Eddie Harrison combine to produce a delightfully nasty and violent thriller, which bears all the hallmarks of classic 70s exploitation cinema. This is not the only influence though, with nods also to Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None, Gus Van Sant in restrained and sparse mode, and to horror maestro Dario Argento.With red herrings, an appreciable sense of false revelation, a tasty dose of gore and a clean, clinical, functionally efficient feel to the picture, this is enjoyable fare. The dialogue is stripped of flannel, everything has a reason to happen despite an overall feeling of ambiguity and the direction shows an interesting ambivalence towards the central characters which poses more questions than it answers.Dark Nature is a pleasing B movie. Small aims, nicely realised.
