Review: Dark, Lovely, and Deep (2023)




Review: Lovely,Dark, and Deep (2023)

By William Pattison


Lovely, Dark, and Deep (2023)

This time I got a freaky National Park horror movie…

Lennon, a new back-country ranger, travels alone through the dangerous wilderness, hoping to uncover the origins of a tragedy that has haunted her since she was a child.

When most people think about National parks they think of bears and other animals as well as trees, campfires and fun But for those of us in the know there is a dark side to National parks. People see freaky things, experience freaky things, and  thesome disappear without a trace. Finally there is a feature film on this subject.

This film actually delivers. It is amazingly shot and makes the forest itself a character, a royally psychotic character.

Gergina Campbell play Ranger Lennon, who finds herself in a nightmare world Where people she knows are dark nasty.  She must escape this world deep inside a National park before she is murdered or goes insane herself. Champbell does an outstanding performance. She actually steals the show.

This film is also full of scenes and Fx that will absolutely amaze you.

The one thing that rreally makes this film truly interesting is that the film really doesn’t  explain who or what “ They” are or really what their motive is. I think this really sells the film for me,because not knowing is scarier.

Allin all I can heartily say that this film entertained me and if you like dark, freaky films as much as I do you’ll  find this film FREAKTACULAR!!!
