After a promising start, The Dark turns into a naively conceived and rather boring tale of an outsiders’ friendship of two severely damaged children taking their revenge on the adult world in the style of a splatter. Not en masse and deliberately, but when it is needed during their wandering through the forest and trying to find themselves. The Dark is a horror movie that was probably also intended to be a social drama (like Let the Right One In), but due to stupid dialogue, cheap masks and overall poor direction, it’s only a clumsy approximation of one.

Even though The Dark doesn't end on a positive note, it felt like something special had suddenly happened. The beginning of the film is sheer darkness, almost impenetrable, but by the end, it's softer, more human, and it has a little something positive in it. Not much to be honest, but it was an interesting rebirth. The entire process was very painful, but clearly interesting for the audience.
