Eye Candy #364 - "Darkness"

Darkness:  A "dark scary house" movie in the vein of Amityville and the like, it has got mood and atmosphere to spare. There are even some genuinely creepy visuals, with evil beings creeping across the ceilings of darkened rooms and down hallways. But this film suffers from a crippling lack of exposition - you just don't know the what and why of what's going on. I mean, it's a horror movie so the explanation doesn't have to be great, but it does have to be complete. You can't just go "it's all because of an evil cult" and then let the audience alone. I mean, yes, the new Amityville film may have been a steaming pile, but at least it attempted to explain what happened and why.
