Load of rubbish!!

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

DARK VISION is yet another found footage horror movie, one in a glut of recent releases, all of which are very similar. The American ones tend to have their characters spending the night in some old hospital or asylum, whereas the UK versions are typically set in somewhere more historic. This one plays out in some underground caverns supposedly haunted by a figure wearing one of those old beaked plague masks.The film is pretty much as you'd expect, i.e. not very interesting in comparison to bigger budgeted fare. The production values are a little better than I expected and there's at least one effective turn from main actor Bernie Hodges, whose over-the-top caricature of a presenter I enjoyed. The rest is strictly middling, with too much time given over to characters sitting around or investigating dark nooks and crannies.This film is openly modelled on the MOST HAUNTED format and feels a bit like a spoof at times. A little of the action is reminiscent of THE DESCENT. A random sex scene is badly shoehorned into the proceedings, and things get very silly for the climax involving a CGI portal. Just when you thought it couldn't get any cheesier, there's a random jump twist scare ending which had me laughing out loud.

I thought this film had promise. A good blend of 'found footage' and third person perspective. The acting was standard for the type of movie it is, with a couple of standout performances.Spencer Knights, played by Bernie Hodges, was an asshat of the purest variety. More concerned for winning his own network show, he put his entire crew, plus one, in danger for the highest hits on his internet feed. The villain in this instance was the spirit of a doctor who sacrificed thirteen children to open a doorway to the shadow realm. Unfortunately, Spencer re-enacted the ritual, sans sacrifices, and allowed a cambion to inhabit the doctor's wandering spirit. As it ran rampant, killing the rest of the crew and the plus one, it became more real. Fortunately, two of the crew escaped more or less intact.Clem, the caretaker, played by Judith Haley, was a lush after my own heart. She provided enough comic relief, as well as creep factor, to keep the film mildly interesting. She provided the accurate background for the 'ghost', as well as some interesting tidbits of witchcraft and paganism. She used her witchy ways to banish the cambion back into the other realm.A couple of jump scares, but mostly a lot of loud noise and a slowly stalking man in a monk's robe and beak mask make for a so-so film. Had they attempted to inject a little more humor, it might've garnered a little higher rating. Obviously, in spite of its best efforts, it wasn't a really scary 'horror' movie; just a run of the mill haunted house flick.

The one good review is from a guy who talks about seeing lots of movies and this is great, except he's only reviewed THIS movie!!!In other words, he worked on the film.It's an atrocity. Boring, stiffly acted, poorly written and amateurishly directed.Too bad because the sets are cool enough to have worked well with a crew who had talent.It feels more like a really bad TV show than a movie.The blonde with the big ones should have done a full frontal and I'd have given it 2 stars instead of one.

I watched this movie without any expectations, there were no reviews to base it off or at least not to go into the film with any preconceptions. From the very first scene to the last, the acting is awful, cheesy, unconvincing and dull.A horror movie for me, needs to be scary and tense, this film was neither. I never jumped or found myself dreading the next scene, instead I was wishing the torment would end. At this point, I was ready to scoop out my eyes and tear out my cochlear, so the torment would end.I would not recommend this film to anyone. It was terrible.. Truly terrible.
