[BD Review] Brad Says ‘Dark Skies’ Takes The “Slow Burn” To An Unfortunate Extreme

Dark Skies, the slow burn psychological horror film starring Keri Russell, Daniel Barrett and Josh Hamilton hits theaters today from Dimension Films. Brad (Mr. Disgusting) wasn’t a fan. At all. I’ve also seen the film and, while I dislike it a bit less than him, I have to agree with the points he makes in his review. Most of the issues stem from the script by Scott Charles Stewart (who also directed).

“The film is, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the most boring features I’ve seen in years. Taking slow burn to an entirely new level, it traffics in some of the most cliche alien motifs out there, but also feels the need to eventually over-explain everything in one purging moment. After over an hour of obvious hints and weird occurrences (such as the birds scene from the trailer – as well as missing time, rashes behind ears, and unwatchable camera footage), the filmmakers decide to assault the viewer with an overly long explanation of occurrences.”

Josh Hamilton (Away We Go, Outsourced) has his work cut out for him in Dark Skies. He plays Daniel Barrett, whose wife (Keri Russell) and kids (Dakota Goyo and Kaden Rockett) – not to mention himself – are being tormented by sinister forces. Hamilton is required to straddle the line between skeptical and protective and it’s something he pulls off well.

In the supernatural thriller directed by Scott Charles Stewart “Follows a young family living in the suburbs. As husband and wife Daniel and Lacey Barret witness an escalating series of disturbing events involving their family, their safe and peaceful home quickly unravels. When it becomes clear that the Barret family is being targeted by an unimaginably terrifying and deadly force, Daniel and Lacey take matters in their own hands to solve the mystery of what is after their family.”

Much of the Dark Skies promotional campaign has focussed on stars Keri Russell and Josh Hamilton. But the horror film has another key player, J.K. Simmons (Juno, Burn After Reading, Jennifer’s Body) plays Edwin Pollard, an “expert” on the phenomena that the Barrett family is experiencing. Simmons is one of my favorite performers, so I jumped at the chance to speak with him.

Movie commercials offer us a great service; they not only show us which upcoming movies look good, but also which ones to avoid. And if one looks closely, they often reveal more than intended about the film in question. In honor of this profound art, I give you TRAILER TRACKS, an examination of upcoming movie commercials: What they say, what they don’t say, and what they say on accident about the product being sold to you, the excited chump.

In theaters February 22 from Dimension Films is Dark Skies, the alien abduction horror film starring Keri Russell, Daniel Barrett and Josh Hamilton. The trailer premiered today, and while the aliens stuff on “American Horror Story: Asylum” is definitely scarier, this looks like it has potential (or maybe I was tricked by the Aliens score at the end?). I’m intrigued by the family abuse angle, which hightens the story a bit past where a film like Fire in the Sky went (although that it was one, if not THE scariest alien abduction film ever made).

Scott Charles Stewart’s Dark Skies kicked off production on August 3rd, and it looks like things went smoothly during the shoot as the film already has a release date of February 22, 2013 via Dimension. The film stars Keri Russell, Daniel Barrett, Josh Hamilton and Dakota Goyo.

Jason Blum produced the film through his Blumhouse Productions and Alliance Films and Dimension is onboard to distribute, we exclusively reported that the horror flick focuses on a 6-year-old boy who’s apparently been “marked” by an alien (living among us) for future abduction. It looks like it taps into some of the same themes of Fright Night, while also playing into child abuse (did the parents cause these marks on the child’s body?)

Hidden within an article a few weeks ago it was revealed that Legion and Priest director Scott Charles Stewart would be getting behind the camera for Dimension Films’ Dark Skies, some sort of sci-fi horror that was being kept secret.

That’s never good enough for us here on Bloody Disgusting, which is why I put in a few calls and started digging.

Being produced by Blumhouse and Alliance Films, we’ve exclusively learned that the horror flick focuses on a 6-year-old boy who’s apparently been “marked” by an alien (living among us) for future abduction. It looks like it taps into some of the same themes of Fright Night, while also playing into child abuse (did the parents cause these marks on the child’s body?)

Keri Russell (Mission: Impossible III, Grimm Love) and Daniel Barrett are both in talks, BD also discovered. They would play the young boys parents, who are financially struggling to get by.

Blumhouse is responsible for the Paranormal Activity films, and the forthcoming The Lords of Salem, directed by Rob Zombie, Sinister, Area 51, Vigilandia, Not Safe For Work and Mockingbird. Wowsa! READ MORE

The film is an adaptation of a TokyoPop comic book, the story is set in a world ravaged by centuries of war between man and vampire and follows a warrior priest who turns against the church to track down a murderous band of vampires who have kidnapped his niece.

PRIEST, a post-apocalyptic action thriller, is set in an alternate world — one ravaged by centuries of war between man and vampires. The story revolves around a legendary Warrior Priest (Paul Bettany) from the last Vampire War who now lives in obscurity among the other downtrodden human inhabitants in walled-in dystopian cities ruled by the Church. When his niece (Lily Collins) is abducted by a murderous pack of vampires, Priest breaks his sacred vows to venture out on an obsessive quest to find her before they turn her into one of them. He is joined on his crusade by his niece’s boyfriend (Cam Gigandet), a trigger-fingered young wasteland sheriff, and a former Warrior Priestess (Maggie Q) who possesses otherworldly fighting skills.

Considering how f*cking terrible Scott Charles Stewart’s Legion was, it’s incredibly difficult to be excited for his vampire adaptation Priest. Yet, I find my eyes extremely attracted to the footage presented in both trailers. It kind of looks like Matrix meets Resident Evil meets Dark City. Am I being fooled? Probably. I guess we’ll know on May 13th when Sony Screen Gems releases the flick starring Paul Bettany, Cam Gigandet, Maggie Q, Karl Urban and Lily Collins. An adaptation of a TokyoPop comic book, the story is set in a world ravaged by centuries of war between man and vampire and follows a warrior priest who turns against the church to track down a murderous band of vampires who have kidnapped his niece. The probably PG-13 thriller is being released in fake post-converted 3-D.
