There's something in this house... Something ancient and dark that remains still, hidden and silent. It can only wait, having been concealed in the shadows for years. In fact, its milieu is darkness. Only in it can it show itself and move. It even takes its name: DARKNESS. It's lived here since someone tried to call it, more than forty years ago. Because this house hides a secret, a terrible past, an inconceivably evil act... Seven children, faceless people, a circle that must be completed. And blood, lots of blood... (imdb)

What are wrong with these people!? 1. Mom! Son gets cut in throat while sleeping. Dad goes crazy with knife while cutting potatoes. Oh, there's nothing wrong... Let's cut dad so he can breathe! No, I can't do it! Wahhh! 2. Son! Knows everyting but refuses to talk (not that mom would listen anyway). 3. Daughter! Realizes that family is crazy, but gosh-darnit, loves 'em all anyway. 4. Boyfriend! Is able to learn everything about the house/cults in less than a day! Smartie-pants!

There's a reason that Darkness sat on studio shelves for more than two years after it was shot. That reason is that, regardless of how long it went through post-production, no matter how much cleverness went into trying to save it, it was a completely doomed project. No trickery would be able to fix what was completely broken from the get-go. This is a barely coherent, terribly docile, waste of time and talent, that you have absolutely no reason to see. This is a truly awful movie.

One or two unexpected twists towards the end can't compensate for the obnoxious directorial style. Each "scary" scene is telegraphed so much by the shaky camera, spasmodic editing, intrusive music, etc, that it completely sucks the tension out of what is happening on screen. Also, why is everything (including the radio, TV and newspapers) in English, and since when does Spain have a monsoon season?
