Very Dark and well worth a look!...

Rating: 9/10 (1 April 2012)

This review refers to the Director's Cut version available on DVD.
This film is extremely dark, and I'm not just talking about the way it's lit. Everything about it is dark. Yes there are things that people may find a little bit too freaky, flying men for a start, but I can overlook this 'silliness' because the story is so good. It slowly unfolds like a 1930's detective novel, but with a very dark twist. I must admit that even on its third viewing I was still finding little nuances in there that just make it a little better each time. Without doubt: Highly Recommended.
My score: 8.7/10.
