Brandon's Cult Movie Reviews: THE DARK

[@skylx0812]

"Kingdom of the Spiders" with William Shatner was filmed in 1977 in Camp Verde, Arizona. Not too far from there is Snowflake, Arizona where in November, 1975 the so-called Travis Walton incident occurred. Walton claimed to have been abducted by a UFO and wrote a book about it that was made into the 1993 film "Fire in The Sky" starring D.B. Sweeny. Cardos may have gotten the alien idea from the Walton story since it was still big news in Arizona when he was there filming Spiders.

[@michaelccozens]

Oh, man, "Kingdom of the Spiders" is not one to watch if you have any empathy for tarantulas. I get that might be strange idea to some, but try sitting through the film and see how long it takes before you really start to feel bad for the little guys. Nobody on that set had any concern at all for their well-being.

[@BillyTheBigKid82]

@@michaelccozens Yeah, I can't watch any movie where animals get killed for real. That's just sick...

[@amandal5857]

Speaking as someone that discovered you a few weeks ago and has binge watched every free moment since, this is probably one of your funniest episodes ever. All of your jokes land perfectly, and I’m left both laughing and wanting a bathrobe to match the drugs I’m on. Bravo, sir.

[@WillieManga]

I hate this kind of movie. Someone has a vision for an awesome film but someone goes and screws with it. Films like Cool World or The Theif and The Cobbler had a lot of wasted potential.

[@maxbrandt6]

Same for the 1986 low budget horror movie Twisted Souls, they went overbudget and overschedule and a new editor was brought in to "fix" things but instead scrambled everything and shoehorned in scenes from another movie and called it Spookies to sorta kinda capitalize on Ghoulies. What you get is an interesting premise and idea completely ruined by an asshat who thinks they know movies, a real missed opportunity for a great b-grade cult film! I have an idea for a sequel that could possibly right the wrongs of the flubbed-up Twisted Souls story.

[@Nat20streak]

I remember in the cobbler when he wears the dead guy's shoes it traumatized me (I was 5years old)

[@TheCrazyHedgehogLady]

I agree. Hate when you can see the bare bones of a legit good movie but they’re so buried in bullshit, they never had a chance. :/

[@ogabooga8328]

the same to happen with The walking with dinosaurs movie that came out where for some reason they had to edit in last-minute voice-overs for everything that ruin the movie and then the thing prequel where they all had practical effects but for some reason instead the place put CGI over it

[@wugglesx]

I LOLLLLED at the "The daaaaarknessssss....sssss..ssss" :D The moviemakers probably hired the Snake-Men to do the effects(sss). I can see Kobra Khan and General Rattlor cramped in studio booth, trying to make their hissing authentic while the director orders them around. :) I did not see the eye-blaster effects coming. :D That's something the producer's 6-year-old-kid probably told his dad would be cool to add. :D

The "police chief" guy ("Police Captain Speer") was played by Warren J. Kemmerling, who was in "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" as the U.S. Army officer "Wild Bill" who is in charge of the coverup and base security at the Devils Tower butte in Wyoming near the end of that film.

[@avega2792]

The movie isn’t great but it’s fairly watchable at 3 am when you can’t sleep. I have a soft spot for bad horror films. It reminds me of being a kid home sick from school watching bad horror movies.

Remember seeing this at the drive-in when I was a kid. You literally couldn’t see two thirds of the scenes becato movie was so dark.

[@WillieManga]

One director says it should be a zombie, and Cardos made it an alien. Why not go both routes? Make it an alien parasite that turned a dude into a zombie. I mean, it's not like it wasn't basically John Carpenter's The Thing, which inspired the Necromorphs of Dead Space. It wouldn't be original, but it would have made a bit more sense.

[@DeepEye1994]

*+WillieManga* "Night of the Creeps" and James Gunn's "Slither" are essentially movies about alien zombies.

[@thomascaldicott7821]

From Dick Clark, that master of terror who brought you ( for your older sister to watch, and ruin your Saturday afternoon cartoons.) American Bandstand. Hey, it used to happen to me, I wanted to watch cartoons. 1960's.

[@sigmacademy]

Who would have thought humans explode in pretty much the same way as '70s spaceships?

[@doctorcrane]

Seriously, did the Nazguls record the soundtrack or something ?

[@ScreamingScallop]

Copypasted from a comment at Kindertrauma: "The 1978 novelization by Max Franklin reveals the original story, and may be all that remains of same; the killer is neither an alien, mutant, nor zombie, but what remains of a 19th Century occultist who has achieved immortality through cannibalism but has subsequently been reduced to a grey-skinned ghoul that does nothing BUT live on-and kill to live on. Which is a keen idea-but the book doesn’t explore it any more than the movie does, and the killer remains just another late ’70s hard-to-kill boogeyman."

[@Ektalon]

The occult angle would really help explain the whole "psychic lady" parts of the movie.

[@VonWenk]

That plotline a lot like Dan Curtis' Kolchak movies and The Norliss Tapes, which might be an incentive, beyond trying to cash in on a trend, to change the killer into a laser-beam-shooting werewolf (as I remember reviews in my local paper describing it at the time). In fact, as I recall, The Dark was reviewed in tandem with The Brood, and the reviewer preferred The Dark.

[@mikedupio8807]

Sounds like Jeepers Creepers borrowed some plot elements of this novel.

[@sigmacademy]

Supernatural is fun to watch... if you can get past the fact that 50% of the series is about demons, and 25% is about ghosts only; leaving only 25% of other creatures and entities (most of which are angels, apparently). XD

[@LibraGamesUnlimited]

@@sigmacademy Well, the storyline really made that happen. I do wish they would do more one-offs but then I've heard others complain that they do too many one-shot episodes and don't focus on the main, season arc, enough. I've even seen people say that the seasons should be half or a quarter of what they are and just be the main story without any side stories and this was back before all these shows with shorter seasons became popular.

[@ChrisCorkum]

Dude, you review some great titles(some that needed 'highlighting'... or even low-lighting in the case of THIS film), with an enjoyably, biting sense of humor, timing, editing, soundwork, etc. more than most of the "experts" on the godforsaken, overstuffed, hypermediated wasteland that is youtube. .I salute You!

[@varanid9]

I also read that it was originally supposed to be a TV movie, but, they decided to release it theatrically and add some gore to get it an R rating. BTW, Brandon's reaction to the "explosive laser eyes kill" at 05:15 was the exact same as ours when we first saw this in theaters decades ago now (!).

[@bloodrunsclear]

I kept expecting The Darkness to call out to Jackie Estacado

The only other film I've seen Richard Jaeckel in is "The Dirty Dozen". Fun fact: he's the only one in the film to do a title drop.

[@JeffreyDeCristofaro]

With all due respect, I really think, with the exception of the brief "mangler" part, Tobe Hooper really could have made this movie fly if he had been given total control without having to be forced to walk out of it due to the usual apathetic studio interference he has faced in his career. He's my favorite horror filmmaker - I wrote a paper about him once for a film appreciation course and even have my annual Tobe Hooper marathon every year, so really, what the F$#%?

[@vladitoncev28]

This is just a guess, but what if the monster is an energy-based life form that was not just inside the meteor but a part of it (just like Ego the Living Planet, just with much lesser energy) and when it crashed on earth, to sustain itself in the environment it searched for another physic body to inhabit - it found a graveyard or cemetery, got inside a grave, possessed the dead body inside, got it out and used the body to find other sources of energy, so it could survive.Think about it, every time the creature didn't exploded or fried someone it decapitated him, i think it sensed the electrical impulses from the brain and it wanted to suck on them.From another view, maybe that's why the narrator refered to it as an alien, but everyone else as a zombie,because it's actually "both" - it's an undead corpse kept alive and controlled by some energy alien.That's why it can project lazers and get out of the body and manipulate things when its out (you know when he trashed psychic lady's house).

[@TheRealNormanBates]

Vladi, you are giving this movie _too_ much credit.

I think you put way more thought into this than the film makers did.

They don't hate them. That would be a waste of energy. No, they just treat them like morons, and for the most part they're right. If people were more critical, and demanding, (like Brandon, you and I) they would have no choice but to give us the quality we deserve. Along with giving new filmakers a chance to experiment, with new ideas, techniques, etc. Instead, the studios are too scared to take a chance and instead, give us remakes, reboots and retard pleasing crap!
