Dark Honeymoon (2008) Reviews
The no-tell motel
It appears some people don't really get to know who they are marrying until they begin their honeymoon. That is, if by chance, or design, they didn't get to be more "intimate" before the wedding. This seems to be the case with the young couple at the center of the story. Paul, the young groom, didn't have a clue as to his bride Kathryn's personality, or even her strong feelings about religion. She had a few issues that prove to be incompatible with her new married status. Their honeymoon at the "Bates-like" motel in Oregon, turns out to be something Paul didn't bargain for. What starts out as a pleasant trip turns out to be a nightmare. He begins realizing Kathryn is not all he thought she was, but either, he is too naive not to notice, or he has been living in a dream world. Suffice it to say that Kathryn is not quite the woman Paul had in mind when he married her. Evidently, "Dark Honeymoon" has gone to video before its release. We had no information on this film when it was shown on a cable channel when we were overseas. It appears it was not even released in the US yet, as there are no comments submitted to this site. One thing though, David O'Malley is not afraid to show a lot of blood to his viewers. The most fun was to watch Lindy Booth getting rid of the people not worth to be on this earth, and seeing more experienced actors like the late Roy Scheider, Darryl Hannah, Tia Carrere, and Eric Roberts in bit roles to help the director, no doubt. On the other hand, we didn't care for Nick Cornish as the husband.
Underrated Thriller...Really, more people should watch this one!
This film really took me by surprise. I caught this in a hotel room while vacationing with my brother and his awful girlfriend (needless to say, the vacation was a total bust and this movie was the highlight - I should re title this review "Better Than a Week in Cancun!). Considering the cast and the unnerving suspense, I'm flabbergasted as to why this movie didn't reach a wider audience. I won't divulge any of the plot information, but I will say that there's a final act reveal that you will NOT see coming. My jaw hit the floor, and it's still there, actually (I think my jaw is broken - it's weird). The acting is uniformly excellent all around. The writing was twisty and unexpected, and none of it felt scripted. The movie just moved...and it was pretty damn good. I highly recommend this one.
Come on Folks Lighten Up
What I saw here was a bit of cinematic satire on the who done themes. The movie was NOT written or directed to be taken so seriously. It was a fun watch for me and it wasn't until about a third of the way through, I lightened up and saw this film through the glass of the directors. Its met to get fun, not taken seriously as Jack the Ripper. So, I will give this DVD another watch and at least a six. Just sit back, put your feet up and watch it. From the very beginning you can see, this film is tongue in cheek. This could be seen as a little dig upon the the phony message, once wed always stay true or the buggy man will come for you.
A BAD joke?
This "movie" is such a bad work! Nothing seems to even try and be realistic. Plot is weak, acting - miserable, actors wondering around like in a 1st year production, trying very hard to act with no chance at all from the beginning. What a flop! What a waste of time, money and effort to all concerned including the audience. Well, as in any thriller, here too are murders, corpses and blood. Just imagine someone who 5 minutes ago, committed a murder with a knife, and came out calm and smiling, not to mention clean as a whistle, as if slashing one's throat is done by a virtual agent. Also, this murder was supposed to be done by a tiny fragile woman on a high strong male, and she cut his throat!!! Did she ask him, politely, to bend down for her? Much more stupidity of that same kind is going on and on leaving the audience wondering if this meant to be a joke which just turned out to be a bad one. Continuity is another huge problem as for instance: The eager-hungry groom is lying in bed, waiting for his virgin-bride to get out of the bathroom and after a long while, falls asleep(!?!). Next scene opens with the young couple entering the reception-area, asking for guidance to scenery spots! NOT A WORD ABOUT LAST NIGHT??? Such a waste of time even to try and write about this low-low supposed-to-be "movie".
Shocking !!!...and not in a good way!
Roy Sheider, Tia Carrere, Daryl Hannha, Erik Roberts (may well have lost his Role in Batman had this been on his showreel)... some good names from a few years back...how bad can it be you ask yourself. somehow the director has even made these actors appear like this is their first time in front of a camera, pinnocio was less wooden I must admit I couldn't watch the whole film, in fact 20 minutes was enough for me despite all the flaws others have mentioned, the writer must be held accountable for this misguided story, one of a million all seen before, I assure you now, any good reviews on this movie must be from the directors mother.
