Starring: Chaney Kley, Emma Caulfield, Andrew Bayly, Emily Browning, Joshua Anderson

Directed by: Jonathan Liebesman

Synapsis: Kyle Walsh (Chaney Kley) must return home to confront his troubled past and save his childhood sweetheart Caitlin (Emma Caulfield) and her younger brother Michael (Lee Cormie) from an unrelenting evil that has plagued the town of Darkness Falls for over one hundred and fifty years.

Butter's critique: when I saw the previews I couldnt wait to see the movie. it looked interesting and scary but I was disapointed. A friend of mine was right. he said to me "the movie is rated pg-13 how good could it be?" but I had to find out. it starts pretty good with the story of how the evil spirit was made. It explains how the myth of the toothfairy was born. how this lady was wrongly killed and swore vengance to the whole town. she visits kids when they lose their last baby tooth and if they look at her burned face she kills them. The movie was the typical "surprise" scary movie. you know, the one where theres silence and then a loud sound even when nothing happens! that kinda movie. is mildly interesting at first but it gets predictable as the movie goes on and im getting tired of the "child that knows whats going on more than the adults" kinda role (6th sense style). the ending really sucked! ends abruptly and the movie is kinda short itself. in conclusion I dont recomend this movie unless there nothing else good to see. I give it a :

good point about the child...

how come the last 10 scary movies that have come out, all have an uber-intelligent or possessed kid?

this movie, 6th sense, that kevin bacon movie, the nicole kidman movie... its frickin annoying!

regardless, good review. ill let your sacrefice serve for the better, and not see this movie myself.

Darkness Falls licks balls! The Tooth Fairy can kiss my ass! Those actors owe me $9.50, even though I saw it for free!

For semi-decent horror and inventive death scenes, see Final Destination 2!

Nice to see Emma Caulfield getting some big-screen work. Hopefully this movie won't put an end to it before it begins.
