User Reviews

Dark Touch - He just missed a little something to make a good movie

My opinion ---

I do not have many resentments, nor understood the things that are in power to make this movie a good movie. I find that "Marina De Van" by trying on horror film, music, music, music, music and music. "Missy Keating" was considered an excellent in her role and happy, otherwise the film would have been a disaster. In conclusion little horror movie with some good effects, it's too just to make a good movie ...
