The Dark and the Wicked | Review & Score

About: On a secluded farm in a nondescript rural town, a man is slowly dying. His family gathers to mourn, and soon a darkness grows, marked by waking nightmares and a growing sense that something evil is taking over the family.

Bryan Bertino has graced us with his horror presence again with THE DARK AND THE WICKED. A phenomenally toned, storied, paced, eerie and clever psychological thriller. You're really stay for how this one is shot, it's very beautiful.

Bertino hasn't lost a step here and it shows. The Dark and the Wicked is atmospheric in ways we don't see very often anymore with psychological horror. He's done the genre justice and I can't wait to see what he brings us next. If you're a fan of beautiful imagery, dark tone, well thought out and acted characters... Bryan Bertino has a notch on the belt for you.

One of my favorites in a long time.
