Amazing cast

Alone in the Dark is one of my all-time favorite movies (OK, just kidding).

Yeah, this movie isn't perfect, but it's not too bad either. Going in to this movie, I was fully expecting the same complete rubbish that Alone in the Dark was. However, I was fairly surprised. It was by no means perfect, but it wasn't that bad. It seems like a decent movie that was made with a really low budget.

Only thing I don't know is, why is this movie called Alone in the Dark 2? It has not much similarities with the first film.. anyway its a good movie with some great actors :)
