Patrick Cavanaugh The Wolfman Cometh Generic asylum-themed drivel that never knew whether it wanted to commit to the bit of being satirical and humorous or offer anything genuinely disturbing. Rated: 1/5 Sep 20, 2023 Full Review Scott Weinberg FEARnet Mostly stuff you've seen before, only here it's been re-heated and reconfigured into a crafty little creeper that actually works. Sep 6, 2013 Full Review Heather Wixson Dread Central Dark Feed is pretty enjoyable as soon as everyone begins to go batshit crazy and the violence kicks into high gear.

Audience Member I didn't really enjoy this film as it lacked scare power. The only thing I did enjoy about it was that the characters went psycho and kinda killed the none psycho characters. Other than that it was a heap of garbage. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member A subtle horror which doesn't use cheap ploys to scare. 22.6.14 Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Dark Feed (Michael and Shawn Rasmussen, 2013) I'm not entirely sure what possessed me to give Dark Feed a go. I mean, it was kind of doomed from the start. But still, I figured there might still be a touch of meat left on those old bones. And I still believe that, somewhere, there might be. It is not to be found here, however. Premise: a film crew rents an abandoned, and supposedly haunted, asylum for a bit. They move in, set up shop, and start filming a low-budget horror movie. But soon enough they discover that either they've got a psycho in their midst or the place really is haunted. Sound familiar? It should if you've watched a few horror movies. This is a run-of-the-mill haunted house flick with the requisite bevy of attractive women and brainless men. There's one character who points to the Rasmussen brothers intending this as a satire of the movie industry (or perhaps just the big studio system), but if so, that message kind of got lost in the mix; it's certainly not done here as well as it is in, say, Golia's Killer Shrimps. I ended up feeling like if they'd puched the envelope anywhere at all in this movie, done one thing different than everyone else making low-budget DTV horror, I might have found something more to enjoy in it. Sadly, that was not the case. * 1/2 Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member A 'haunted abandoned hospital' horror. Sadly, the hospital looks more like a factory. Very little atmosphere, too little 'gotticky' to it....Tacky acting, story senseless in places, previsible... Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member slow paced low budget zombie like thriller Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member As far as independent horror films go, this one is basically the dictionary definition of "okay". The concept of the movie seems fresh enough, but it was ultimately ruined by not delivering a haunting atmosphere akin to something like 'Grave Encounters', another low-budget psych ward horror flick (that I highly recommend). I personally think the found-footage gimmick would have actually helped this movie quite a bit. Just insert a guy filming special features for the movie the characters in the film are making and have him accidentally capture creepy shit. Sure, it would be a copy of 'Grave Encounters', but maybe that's not such a bad thing. In any case, 'Dark Feed' is entertaining enough to sit back and laugh at I guess. Simply put, I've definitely seen worse, and better. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
