Audience Member The storyline is ok but the entity/creature/darkling is creepy as hell as in creppy disgusting. I enjoyed the expensive cars element and the temptation of the riches in it. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member A modern tale of Faust, the devil was quite scary looking, ending was great, if there was more shocking elements would make this film better Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member It's not working at all. The movie could have had potential if it had been instructed better. The story is thin, the actors are bad and the movie feels all to long. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member This film i bought ages ago and just never got around to watching it.... but when i finally did... i really liked it... ok it wasnt one of the best films... but it was still good.... a dodgy accent here and there but overall, for me, a good film... Oh and one hell of a creepy "Darkling" and the song... Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Strange, and not in a very good way ... Much too arty-farty and marred by rather bad acting. Still, it's digestible as a late Friday video snack. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member An interesting idea that provides a strong example of how the power of greed can destroy a person. Although it stagnates in the middle of the film and has a rather muddled ending. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
