Left In Darkness (2006)

How sad is this?

Good start, but then it gets ruined

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

In this game of life, I believe there are beings who know what happens to the soul after death. I caught this movie on the SciFi Channel and it grabbed my attention although i didn't see it from the beginning until years later when i finally got around to looking it up and watching it in full. That's how much this movie affected me In some way the movie is guiding lost souls and telling them what to expect when one dies. Just like many artists and musicians who record music with very strange lyrics about white lights and the moon and so forth. For the more visual person , like myself.....this movie spoke to me because this movie is telling everyone that after you die , to gain entrance to heaven you must first find the source. And the source is a common theme prevalent in most anything you listen to or see these days on TV or on the radio. And her dead mother plainly tells her "YOU MUST FIND THE SOURCE" If you are interested in my review then look up Trickster gods and read reviews of what is going on in this world and enlighten yourself to the mysteries of life. Thank you and good luck :)

Perhaps I would have liked this film better if I hadn't been so distracted by the incredible fakeness and plastic appearance of the lead actress, Monica Keena. I don't know which has more silicone: her lips or her bosom. For a while into the film I wondered why in every scene she was eating a bagel, then I realized it was simply her lips. Her augmentations made her appear more of a joke than a serious actress. No doubt those were her only qualifications for being cast in this role, since it obviously was not her acting ability.With a better actress in the lead role, or even one without exaggerated props, this could have been a good film. The premise was different enough to make it interesting and above the usual fray. Sadly, though, I cannot recommend it.

In agreement with the another commenter, this is an upper class B horror flick. I came across it randomly the other night, and sacrificed much needed sleep because I had to see how it ends. Heaven & Hell movies are intriguing. Anders is impressively precise and mature. His confidence in his lines make his character believable. He has good foreshadowing qualities - a bit of Loki in his eyes. Monica does the horror damsel thing well. She's good at crying, funny at running. Tim Thomerson steals the show with his Soul-Eating Grandpa. Good plot structure - shocking beginning into good filler and wrap it up. I will be adding this one to my archives.

A girl (Monica Keena) is murdered on her 21. birthday and stucked between the real life and the afterlife.I normally like movies about afterlife. But nothing works in this movie. The script was awful, the acting was worse than anything I've ever seen. You can watch Monica Keena in her worst performance. Putting her as the leading character was maybe the biggest mistake of the producer (shooting this movie is the 2. mistake). I could't stand her laughter and actually I was relieved when she died.The only thing good in that movie was David Anders. He did his best even with the hokey dialogue in the script.Summary, don't waste your time and money, go watch Silent Hill or rent the DVD of Darkness.
