Half Light
When
the darkness falls the dead will rise...
Half
Light revolves around successful novelist Rachael Carson (Demi Moore)
whose life is thrown into turmoil when her young son accidentally
drowns. With not only her marriage and mental state on the verge of
breakdown, a close friend recommends Rachael to travel to a secluded
village where she can hopefully resume her writing career. Unfortunately for Rachael, things are not what they seem in this
mysterious village.
Upon
arrival, Rachael witnesses the ghost of her dead son and when she seeks
answers from the village's psychic, she is turned away as an outcast.
Forcing to find solace with a mysterious light house keeper, the strange
events of Half Light continue that builds into an Earth shattering
crescendo.
Craig Rosenberg is not only the writer of Half Light but also the
director who incorporates a variety of interesting twists to make this
thriller more than just your average ghost movie. With beautiful English
locales, first class acting from Demi Moore, Hans Matheson and Henry Ian Cusick, the film unfortunately falls flat with a rather average
screenplay that delivers a jagged storyline with clichéd twists. With
that in mind, Rosenberg truly a unique twist that I'm sure 99% of the
viewers will never guess. Still worth a look!
The video and audio quality of Half Light is exceptionally sharp and
colourful, match that with crystal clear audio and an immersive
soundtrack and this movie does have makings of a Hollywood blockbuster.
Unfortunately when it comes for extras, this edition of Half Light
delivers only the movie itself.
