This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

The paranormal investigators Jack Donavan (Michael Koltes) and Jonathan Blazer (Paul Flannery) receive a mysterious invitation card to go to the notorious Richmond Manor, where several murders have happened along 200 years. A mysterious butler tells that his boss has invited them to stay for three nights at the mansion to get rid of the label of haunted house. In return, they would receive fifty thousand dollars each. Jack is a skeptical man that uses technology to find frauds while Jonathan is a medium. What will they find in the Richmond Manor?"Ghosts of Darkness" is a flawed low budget haunted house film with many clichés. However with improvements in the storyline and screenplay; a better budget; and replacement of the unconvincing Michael Koltes, this film could work. The result is not good but is not awful at all since Paul Flannery gives some touch of humor to the story. My vote is four.Title (Brazil): Not Available

That being said, I did not find it entirely unlikable. The premise was interesting at first but once some things were revealed, it didn't really go anywhere with the info or finish the story along those lines. I wanted them to go more in-depth with the reveal. Instead, it just became a silly try-to-scare-ya movie, which fell flat.While Michael Koltes performance as Jack the paranormal investigator was lackluster and stoic, Paul Flannery as Jonathan the psychic steals every scene he's in with his Cumberbatch acting (reminiscent of Dr. Strange)/Sirius Black look. I finished watching it just for his performance alone, wanting to see what he would do next. It definitely kept me from falling asleep. If your a Cumberbitch, you'll enjoy his performance because his delivery is VERY similar. Its the main reason I rated it as high as I did.

Two investigators, one a psychic and one a sceptic, are tasked to stay in an allegedly haunted house to prove that nothing is there so the house can be sold, or developed, or something. The two agree and before long strange things start to happen. The house has a history of violence and eventually the reason for this is discovered. The film works very well for the first two thirds but the last third descends a bit into silliness which is a shame.The location is atmospheric (Ardgour House in Scotland),the photography competent and the earlier scenes are well directed until the movie comes apart. Michael Koltes was not convincing in his role but Paul Flannery was excellent. He brought well balanced humour, feeling and intelligence to the role as the psychic.

The is a UK low budget horror movie so when I say surprisingly good I am referencing the word budget from many angles.The two relatively unknown actors carry virtually the whole film between them... No mean feat... And they do it very well.The story isn't bad, the suspense is good, the creepiness is well timed and the scares are well launched.I would go as far as to say I would watch it again in time and I would certainly recommend to friends.
