Ethan EthanNov 12, 2020I'm getting pretty sick of this streak of self-conscious trauma-as-horror horror.

Dear horror directors: could you please knock it off with the metaphorical demons and old people walking naked? Thanks a bunch.
CinemaVoid 🏴☠️did this movie deadass try to pass off the act of scrubbing a stain off a sink as scary
Vinny SimmsAug 31, 2020Bleak. Deliberately paced, consumed with suppressed grief, and better than I expected it to be... especially since I had zero expectations and didn’t even see a trailer. Definitely dark, wicked, and emotionally draining doom n gloom as per recent misery movie atmos so I’d…

A joyless affair that has at least one effective jump scare but thinks it is brooding when it is really boring. By the end you wonder why you wasted your time.
Dave TaylorMar 5, 2021Very wicked! I was told it was a slow burn but I didn’t see it that way. Subtle at times but the pacing adds to the horror! Many disturbing scenes. Not really gorie but plenty of of blood. Wish there was a reason for it all but maybe I missed something but it is still…
DyrnottAug 29, 2020“Because you were home” is still a chilling phrase twelve years later. Bryan Bertino burst onto the horror scene with The Strangers, a divisive film but one exploring a real fear: home invasion. Bertino’s latest horror film as writer and director, The Dark and the Wicked,…

One of the best horror films I’ve ever seen and I show it to everyone I know. Great storyline and there’s just something about the dark undertones of the film that leave you on edge from start to finish. A masterpiece in my eyes.

Pitiless in its intent, and hopeless in its sense of sorrowful dereliction, The Dark and the Wicked fully earns its horrifically distressing final scenes.

It isn’t exactly terrifying, but is well-acted and sinister enough to rise (levitate ominously?) above the pack.

Although its bleak worldview may be a turnoff for viewers who like their media a bit more life-affirming, if you’ve ever said to a friend, “it’s so fucked up, you’ve got to see it,” The Dark And The Wicked is one horror movie that lives up to its title.
