Darkness (2009)

AKA: T.M.A.

Director: Juraj Herz

Premise:
A man returns to his childhood home which hides it own horrific history. Soon strange things begin to occur.

My Take:
The set up for the movie is really good. It's suspenseful and a tad creepy with the awesome setting. Then towards the end you find out the house was a hospital for the Nazi's and the wrap up is kind of out of the blue.
This movie has one of the best eye gouging scene ever.

Rating: In the middle
