On a secluded farm in a nondescript rural town, a man is slowly dying. His family gathers to mourn, and soon a darkness grows, marked by waking nightmares and a growing sense that something evil is taking over the family.
REVIEW:
Well worth the watch, in the dark, with the sound cranked. Oscar nod for sound editing – my ****!!!
A dreadful, disquieting & diabolical nightmare that reeks of death & foreboding from the first frame to the last, The Dark and the Wicked is one of those horror entries that relies on its silently brooding & gradually escalating atmosphere to crawl under the skin of its viewers, and is a haunting, unnerving & bone-chilling terror that more than lives up to its name.
Dont believe any hate…LONG time since a movie invoked unbridled, white knuckle terror.
Solid 7.5/10 from this guy. Whew
TRAILER:
Storyline
The Dark and The Wicked follows two siblings who are summoned back to the family farm to await the inevitability of their father’s death. What initially appears to be a timeless ritual of loss and remembrance turns out to be something very different
