Review of Deep Dark

Deep Dark (2015)
7/10
Half measures and unanswered questions
13 October 2019
The trailer gives away too much, IMO. At just 80 mins it is surely an interesting trip. More dark comedy than anything, with brief flashes of horror/creep. Some humorous commentary on art culture with half the runtime of the bloated Netflix Original "Velvet Buzzsaw" or whatever

Desperate artist reaches rock bottom and gets a strange saving grace via mysterious hole in wall. At a cost. Some would say too much, but to have unlimited fame and fortune how far would you go?

Seems the film could have gone one or two ways, but seemingly goes half measure between the two. There seemed a definite lack of resolution, or answers, one in particular. The journey itself was quick and enjoyable, often with dark humor and intrigue, but the ending left me feeling...unfulfilled.
