      Billy R Don't read the tomato critics on this movie because it was shockingly awful! Acting was terrible from start to finish from the two main characters, nothing interesting actually happens until the very end of the film and I even saw both of them blinking when they were meant to be dead 😂😂😂. Case closed on that one folks! 0.5/10 Billy Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/24 Full Review J s The acting and story were fighting with each other for worst performance. Anyone who rates this higher than a 2 is either paid off or a cast member Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/04/23 Full Review Messy Maci The acting was very cringy. You can definitely telll that it's indie made. Though movies that are indie doesn't necessarily equate to a bad movie, this one just really falls flat. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/26/23 Full Review Aaron M Do not be tricked by its rating this movie was ultimately a waste of time. If this movie was ship it would be the Titanic and I'm telling you to get off. I gave it 1.5 stars because at some points it was intriguing Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/26/23 Full Review QuantumVitriol M Don't listen to the simpletons giving this movie 1 star. This movie is definitely worth a watch! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/22/23 Full Review juan c It was okay. I like the twist at the end Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times Rea, a prolific independent filmmaker, deploys the gore judiciously and his actors are above reproach. Feb 7, 2023 Full Review Martin Unsworth Starburst They Wait in the Dark is an always twisting, raw tale that blends mounting dread, be it from demented partners or vengeful specters. Rated: 4/5 Oct 27, 2023 Full Review Andrew Stover Film Threat This gripping thriller is admirable in its dedication to doing the unexpected, all while making you feel deeply unsettled. Rated: 6.5/10 Jun 8, 2023 Full Review Carla Hay Culture Mix The horror movie They Wait in the Dark is nearly derailed by the amateurish performances from almost all of the cast members. However, the screenplay and direction hold up quite well, when it comes to suspense and a few surprises. May 7, 2023 Full Review Shawn Edwards Fox 4 Kansas City Patrick Rea continues to demonstrate his grasp of the horror genre. "They Wait in the Dark" is effectively creepy with just enough thrills. Rated: 4/5 Apr 7, 2023 Full Review Starburst Staff Starburst Tautly written and directed by Patrick Rea, They Wait in the Dark is an always twisting, raw tale that blends mounting dread, be it from demented partners or vengeful spectres.
