Dark Heaven

Rating:
Summary: ONE OF MY TOP TEN FAVORITES
Review: Bravo to filmmaker Douglas Schulze for making such a fascinating indy feature. Although it's really not a "horror" film in the traditional sense, DARK HEAVEN is more of a drama.

In retrospect the story is extremely familiar but it's how director Schulze decides to tell the story that makes it so interesting to watch.

Clearly lower budgeted but more satisfying than I-Robot or that lame Vin Diesel sci-fi flick.

DARK HEAVEN 2?

Summary: Moody, Creepy and Cool
Review: I have a VERY short attention span, so a movie has to keep me interested. My husband took me the FilmFest New Haven where I got to see this one. Very cool. Didn't expect this kind of film (not a "Friday the 13th part XXXVI" or some other dumb horror movie that my husband always drags me to!) If you want to see standard Hollywood horror junk, pass on this undiscovered gem and pick up a copy of "Hellraiser V" or "Halloween XVII" and shut your brain off for an hour or two. But if you wanna see something more "mature" check this one out.

Summary: NOTHING SHORT OF HEAVEN
Review: I'd all but lost hope in the horror genre until I saw DARK HEAVEN. This UNIQUE GEM doesn't attempt to be some mindless slasher flick or another Romero rip-off zombie romp. No, this is something much different. In fact I'd dare to call it ORIGINAL! Yes boys and girls. Not since MOMENTO have I seen something this refreshing. ORDER IT, BUY IT, RENT IT. Whatever. Just SEE IT!
