Review Date:

'And Soon the Darkness' is a bland horror movie with decent visuals and professional execution, but it falls short on originality and suspense.

Video: 66

The 1080p transfer of 'And Soon the Darkness' features strong detail with a pronounced film-like texture and palpable grain, though occasional softness is noted. It expertly handles varied color tones and includes rich black levels despite some crush. Audio is clear, though the high end can be tiresome with moderate surround activity.

Audio: 59

The Blu-ray audio presentation of "And Soon the Darkness" largely satisfies with its Dolby TrueHD 5.1 lossless soundtrack, delivering clear dialogue, rich low end, and effective use of the soundstage, despite some shortcomings in musical elements and occasional need for more surround activity.

Extra: 31

And Soon the Darkness Blu-ray extras include a solid though not groundbreaking audio commentary, a behind-the-scenes Director's Video Diary, deleted scenes, and trailers, offering a decent but not exceptional look into the film's production process.

Movie: 31

And Soon the Darkness, directed by Marcos Efron, suffers from a lackluster script and predictable plot, offering minimal scares and emotional engagement despite decent performances from Amber Heard and Odette Yustman, and visually appealing direction. The film fails to deliver as a thriller, remaining a basic formulaic exercise.
