i think i agree that a lot of the comment here must be fake . even if the movie be not necessarily bad it definitely below average . dark remain be basically a ghost movie with a premise of your own ghost and bad emotion haunt you . the movie start off already with 2 story loosely inter web which even later be not tie together . a couple lose it child which be find slashed in it bed . they move to a country house to flee their past and guess what . the house be haunt and kind of . from here on dark remains start off very slow with some scary moment indeed ( the first ghost appearance be nice and the flashlight sequence also work very good ) . ok and then . woman see ghost of daughter and other ghost of people die in accident or suicide appear and man try to solve secret of house past and woman get depressed and strange neighbor appear . it pretty much all be there and but the premise of it be their own emotion be nice and so you wait for the twist . there be no twist and you be just confuse by a haunt house history story and the strange neighbor and a totally pointless creepy prison and the dead daughter throw together with a photo idea remind me a lot of the shutter . the end be ridiculous because when you start and end a movie this slow and with piano music it pretty lame to include some hoard of ghost at once which look like a zombie flick and of course just to return to slow pacing and piano music . to make it short . dark remains could have be a nice scary ghost story if the script be not try to go everywhere and arrive nowhere . too many story mush together which just do not make any sense and contradict in the basic atmosphere of the movie . and beside . please never use abandon prison again . it so worn off and in this case it even make no sense at all . hey and there be this creepy prison uphill and let shoot there . i guess a lot of ingredient in dark remains be throw in the mix like this .
