One child survives, traumatised by what she witnessed and another child, the eldest boy, is accused of the killings and is found guilty and locked up. Despite a valiant effort from star Charlize Theron, who largely carries the entire movie, inherently difficult source material and a uninspired effort from the director (who also adapted the novel) leaves Dark Places a distinctly forgettable affair. With a thespian flare, some of the members participate in cosplay reenactments of their most favorite murders; others take on a Sherlock Holmes role to crack the cases of unsolved mysteries. Extras: Language(s): English, Hard of Hearing Subtitles: English, Subtitles: English, Interactive Menu, Screen ratio 1:1.

The plot dragged on and I got bored but I watched it to the end because I didn't want my preference for action, thrillers or suspense to cloud my judgement. These cookies can only be read from the domain that it is set on so it will not track any data while browsing through another sites. It’s a fine film, unfairly maligned and dismissed for god knows what reason, especially considering the abysmal fare that gets released every week by labels like Vinegar Syndrome.Twenty-five years later Libby meets Lyle (Nicholas Hoult), the head of a group of true-crime enthusiasts, The Kill Club, who convince her to re-examine the events of that night. Libby Day (Charlize Theron) was only seven years old when her mother and two sisters were murdered and her brother Ben (Tye Sheridan, Joe) was jailed for the crime. But yet another amateur studio that believes it's perfectly reasonable to butcher the original aspect ratio for the sake of 'cool' Blu-Ray widescreen. This looks like an essential release, with the additional commentary track and the 60-minute documentary and the Don Sharp trailers.

Overall, it held my attention throughout and I thought the twists and turns in the plot were intriguing.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. That's a pretty solid cast for a movie whose theatrical release would never expand beyond 151 worldwide locations. The story plays around with timeframes, throwing in plenty of teasing flashbacks to keep you on your toes. Playing out like a cheap and predictable murder mystery with characters so flat that not even the Oscar-winning cast can do anything with it, it's a painful viewing experience.

Presented in the UK on a Region-B locked Blu-ray that boasts a likely faithful rendition of the movie with a 1080p/AVC-encoded High Definition transfer framed in the film’s original theatrical aspect ratio of 2. I'd be interested to know as well how the transfer looks on Nucleus Films's release (still haven't got their Blu-ray releases of Nothing Underneath and Too Beautiful to Die).
