DVD Reviews of Darkness Falls (Special Edition)
DVD Review: Watch Your Expectations
Summary: 3 Stars
Whether this movie is any good or not depends on what you expect from it. There are a few moments you can find yourself startled, but not often enough. On the other hand, the screeching of Matilda (the evil Tooth Fairy) becomes pretty funny over the course of the movie. Overall it's not a movie I'd buy if I lost my copy.DVD Review: One of the worst horror films of 2003
Summary: 1 Stars
Darkness Falls is a film I skipped seeing in the theater because honestly horror films like this shouldn't be rated PG-13 as a matter of act they should go staright to video. I rented this video hoping for a good horror film but alas I was upset. The lead actor Chaney Kley gives a terrible peformance but the worst performance comes from Lee Cormie I was wishing the whole movie that he would bite the dust. The only thing that makes the film worth viewing is hottie Emma Caulfield other wise skip this one.DVD Review: My dentist is much scarier than this Tooth Fairy
Summary: 2 Stars
A semi decent ghost tale based on the Tooth Fairy. A woman was killed being blamed for the disappearance of two children. She put a curse on the town and since then has returned to exact her revenge.
Darkness Falls began interesting enough but the antagonist, who is the Tooth Fairy. Lost her spark early in the movie. Simply because of too many appearances and just not enough flash. It just wasn't scary anymore, not that it ever was to begin with. Hearing a spirit growling and hissin' in the dark does get old. And that's one of the things this movie does wrong.
The Tooth Fairy wasn't that bad of a character. In fact a few scenes towards the end is what saves this movie from being a train wreck. The scenes during the hospital escape utilized the dark atmosphere of this movie the best. Plus the acting was pretty good, especially when compared to what the horror genre usually dishes out.
I didn't find Darkness Falls to be that bad of a movie. It may be worth a rental for some. It's definitly not horrible to me. Now House 2 and Boogeyman, thats horrible. And Darkness Falls is not horrible to me.
DVD Review: Semi-Scary
Summary: 3 Stars
This was a fair movie. Not a lot of scare to it, though. Good story and acting. Don't spend too much on this and you'll be glad.DVD Review: Toothless
Summary: 1 Stars
Someone told me this was the scariest horror film he'd ever seen. I think that person should stay home more, and not rest his laurels on his movie reviewing skills. I can't think of another horror film in the last 5 years that was worse than this one--and I don't want to. The premise was interesting enough with its Ring-like introduction and legendary hooks. A woman wrongly accused of being a childkiller returns from the grave to kill children as the Tooth Faerie, upon losing their last baby tooth. Maybe the first 30 minutes of the film were interesting with quite creepy visuals, but beyond that very nonintuitive leaps were made in the plot--one too many changes of heart and nicks of time--and I just viewed its remainder as a comedy. After that shift in focus I liked it very much.
Description of Darkness Falls (Special Edition)
As a young boy Kyle (Chaney Kley) claimed to have seen the tooth fairy. He also claimed she tried to kill him.Now over twelve years later Kyle has left the town that never believed him. He has also left behind the two people who thought he was telling the truth his childhood girlfriend Caitlin (Emma Caulfield) and her younger brother. And when evil again emerges in Darkness Falls Kyle must return to do battle with the winged creature of doom he saw that night so many years ago. Because evil is back with a vengeance. And it's not leaving without Caitlin's brother.System Requirements:Starring: Chaney Kley Emma Caulfield Lee Cormie and Grant Piro. Directed By: Jonathan Liebesman. Running Time: 86 Min. Color. This film is presented in both "Widescreen" and "Standard" formats. Copyright 2003 Colubmia TriStar.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?HORROR Rating:?PG UPC:?043396098121 Manufacturer No:?09812Humanity's fear of the dark provides Darkness Falls with some anxiety and fuels some jolts of fear from things popping out of nowhere. A kindly woman, who used to give children gold coins in exchange for their lost baby teeth, was hanged for a murder she didn't commit; in her last moments she laid a curse on the town (which has the unlikely name of Darkness Falls). So over the years the ghost of this woman has murdered various children because they saw her when she came to collect their teeth. In the present day, a boy who evaded her clutches returns to town as an adult in order to help the young brother of his childhood sweetheart--and from there this incoherent, inane movie is one long chase sequence without a glimmer of imagination or intelligence. --Bret Fetzer
