Zero scares (a few startles, but with no atmosphere), no engaging, interesting, or likable characters, predictable and telegraphed twists, murky and inconsistent character motivations, dropped plot threads. But among all these problems, the worst might well be a lead actress who quite literally mouth-breathes her way through the entire film. I think the most numerous ghosts in the story were those of the unfortunate flies who were no doubt lost by the dozen into her slack, gawping maw. If it weren't for the slight concern it might be due to some kind of actual medical problem, I'd deduct another half-star for the director simply not taking out ten minutes of time on set to teach her how to breathe through her nose.

This movie started out pretty slowly, but it got intense about halfway through the film, and didn't quit till the end. Loved it!

Great acting. Horrible language, though. Followed the story line well. Not confusing at all. 10/10. Would recommend.

After a sequence of character introductions that we, the audience, must assume may not known each other when the film begins but by its final scene they will have definitely crossed paths, the second act kicks off in a very bold, different direction (and not just for the sake of being different) - however, one can't help but wondering if an extra scene here and there in the beginning to flesh out (punintended) a few of the central characters might have saved the film from a debut filmmaker biting off more than they can possible chew, and by the time the messy parts of the film have been spit back out at us in deadpan fashion, it falls into a very particular category in the genre of such films...the one that keeps dedicated Horror fans engaged and playing along for the majority of the time, but afterwords when it's projected its last visual and auditory emissions, a feeling of sadness FOR the filmmaker is stronger than any personal feelings we have about whether or not OUR time was been irresponsibly gambled with. "Almost..." is something that will resonate in your mind afterwards. BUT, I'd strongly recommend any genre fan to watch this film all the same, as it does a lot of things well, and enough of other things uniquely, such that it does leave a sort of impression on you, but I can't be certain how long it stick as the months and years pass by.

Dark Signal is a serviceable horror film with a strong premise marred by some shoddy writing and uninspiring execution.

Rated: 1.5/5

It's no surprise that Dark Signal is such effective horror, considering it comes from producer Neil Marshall, the man responsible for the modern horror classic The Descent...

The incoherent, mostly-out-of-control Dark Signal is too damn much.

Dark Signal is ambitious and plays its horror and mystery dead straight, a refreshing approach that proves just how sincere Evers-Swindel is about his first film.

Rated: 8/10
