With the end of another week at hand, it was time to jump
back into review mode. While Bren and Jillian finally broke down and watch
Stage Fright last night, I decided to visit something different. My choice, the
2012 British import Art of Darkness.
Plot/ A young woman is held captive by an unhinged lunatic
intent on transforming her into his latest blood-splattered masterpiece.
Art of Darkness (AKA Art House Massacre) is a low budget entry
that definitely suffers from many of the ailments that plague similar movies
from the genre. An interesting premise, the execution does not match the
potential that is in place. The dialog is all over, the acting uneven, and the
characterizations lack depth. Sure, there is a touch of gore and the pacing
picks up as it moves along. In the end, this one is just another forgettable
film in the horror genre. There are a few moments that are entertaining, but
not enough to search it out.
