It begins with not one but two prologues; one character turns up out of nowhere, his introduction no doubt left on the cutting-room floor; and the paltry 85-minute running time includes 15 minutes of end credits.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Oy, how it falls.
While it took three screenwriters to come up with Darkness Falls' countless variations on 'Stay out of the dark!,' many more may have been necessary to provide an interesting plot or developed character.
Do you really need me to tell you how scary this horror show isn't?
This is horror-flick boo-ya at its most rote.
