Dark Waters review
This very well made film serves to confirm what all of us have always suspected- that nuns are evil. Or are they? By the time it's all over, you can't be entirely sure, and one of the special things about it is that it leaves you to reach your own conclusions. Just as special is that:
whereas most horror will settle for shocking, this one goes for genuinely scary,
whereas most films settle for confusing, this one goes for deep background and,
whereas most DVDs settle for an extras disc, this one gives you a cool talisman!

Ergo, therefore and so on- 5 stars.

one of the best horrors I have ever seen
Against all the odds this amazing little independent horror, one of the first feature films to be shot by a western crew in the former USSR (and boy was it a difficult and fraught shoot. It was a labour of love; no doubt about that), shines out as a grand Gothic horror. From the endless candle lit caves to the sinister apocalyptic landscapes Baino's camera prowl es, discovering evil. It's weird, surreal and magical. The story - originally set in the east coast village of Staithes - is a simple one, yet it's intention was to build atmosphere and scare (and it does that nicely.) What a shame it never reached the cinemas, hey it nearly did. It ranks up amongst the best horrors, give it a home next to your fulci, argento and hammer. This lovely DVD release is region 0 and should play on any machine. Enjoy
