Dahlia Williams and her daughter Cecelia move into a rundown apartment on New York's Roosevelt Island. She is currently in the midst of divorce proceedings and the apartment, though near an excellent school for her daughter, is all she can afford. From the time she arrives, there are mysterious occurrences and there is a constant drip from the ceiling in the only bedroom. There are also noises coming from the apartment directly above hers, though it would appear to be vacant. Is the apartment haunted or is there a simpler explanation?Written by

Alternate Versions
Unrated version adds one scene (dream sequence) but removes the dream/reality scene (where Dahlia dreams that her daughter returns from her father) and the scene where Ceci calls Dahlia. In the end the unrated version runs ca 1 minute shorter. See more »
"Dark Water" is a movie which has to do with a mother and daughter who are still wounded from something that happened and they can not move on with their lives. Another thing of this movie is that something were wrong with their apartment and water run-down on it.
I liked this movie because is a really different horror movie from all the other movies that I have watched. I also liked the plot and the whole storyline of it and especially the drama of this mother. I believe that Jennifer Connelly who plays as Dahlia makes a really nice interpretation as also John C. Reilly does. I think that Walter Salles did a really great job in the direction of this movie and this is something that is really obvious in whole of the movie.
Finally I have to say that the difference of the plot in this movie is something that makes "Dark Water" more epic.
