In this film there's all the ingredients for a good thriller. And, above all, movie making that feels fresh. Striking editing, good music, fine acting and excellent direction (by Philip Ridley, a name I'll keep in mind).
The reason I saw the film in the first place - Viggo Mortensen has a supporting role as mute husband to the nymph (Ashley Judd). Brendan Fraser shows that he doesn't only can play the handsome young man. He does a phenomenal role portrait in the difficult title role.
Darkly Noon is an unpredictable film that surely haven't got the audience and critique it deserves. It made me think of such films as _Shining, The (1980)_(qv) and _Enfaldige mördaren, Den (1982)_(qv).
