'Pitch' is a little dark when it comes to scares

Rating: Null/10 (13 January 2003)

** 1/2
Starring: Vin Diesel, Radha Mitchell, Cole Hauser, and Keith David.
A crew crash-lands on a deserted desert planet. They think that it's just an abandoned, hot planet. But what they don't know will soon kill them....literally. Millions of man-eating aliens, who only come out in the darkness, will come out and play a long game of cat-and-mouse to kill their prey. The crew must find a way to get out the planet in one piece (many of them find that a tough task).
There were some great times, but the scares run very dry. And some of the characters bothered me. For instance, Vin Diesel is portrayed as a good guy, but he is really a murderer. He is too much represented as a role model.
This was a decent movie, but is a little dark when it come to the scares.
