Against Against the Dark!
This will be a strange review. Objectively this is a terrible film. Two bland locations are used to portray a world over-run by vampire/mutants. There is no real context just a short voice-over by one of the main characters explaining that the world has been overtaken by a virus.A film made on the cheap, with an appalling script written by a literate infant. At one point a key character is explaining to the others just how bad things are, at least that’s what he says he is doing… In truth he is stating the obvious and in fairly mild terms. Later he is wandering around and runs into the vigilante group led by Seagal and he is told that luck is liable to run out! No sh** Sherlock, the guy is locked in a manky hospital with an army of raging mutants inside and out.
The acting is mostly okay, but Steven Seagal is so wooden it is hard to distinguish him from the scenery.Otherwise it’s reasonable especially at some have no lines at all, aka attendants one and two 🙂 There is horror and action in good measure but overall the film is a stinker. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.
HOWEVER, I don’t mind it. In fact I’ve seen it a few times. The score reflects an objective review not what I think entirely. I like the feeling of being under siege by ravening monsters, I quite like gory scenes and a bit of action. In this sense it’s a fair effort for me,largely because I’m weird and easily pleased, but most people will undoubtedly hate it.
Should have stayed in the dark.
Oh dear, Steven Seagel has been starring in very mediocre to poor straight to DVD films in recent times and the digitally shot low-budget horror / action “Against the Dark” is another terrible outing. Actually I was expecting more Seagel, but really he’s nothing more than a support character. Who does nothing much than wandering around, kicking in with some slaughter by samurai sword and whispering out inane dialogues.The future is looking grim as the earth’s population has succumbed to a virus that turns its victims into zombie-like vampires. The story mainly centres on a group of survivors held up in an abandon hospital; trying to get themselves out before the generator dies meaning they would find themselves trapped. Their only chance of survival seems to rest of a small group know as hunters led by Tao (Seagel in glory) who go around finding the non-infected and slice and dice those who are.
The premise feels like a sloppily dull mixture of ”Resident Evil”, “Blade” and “28 Days Later”. The predictably clichéd story has been done to death, but it’s poorly drawn up (characters and situations with a script that thinks its got something insightful to say no worthless drivel) consisting of senselessly dumb plot devices that it grows wearisome by feeling much longer than it is. What’s going on is a lot of posing and little imagination to back it up. Ah there’s a lot of walking/running here and then over there as the confined elements find themselves getting smaller. The gloomy visuals aren’t too bad with some decently ghastly images, but when the action hits (with that overwrought music score) it’s a blotchy mess of purposely unfocused editing. The performances stand-up better (Jenna Harrison and Linden Ashby) than the pitiful material, but I found the characters reactions completely annoying.
