47 - Dark Island

    A pretty cheap movie, involving an island where a biological experiment has taken place.  A crew is sent to investigate it.  The enemy seems to be an inky cloud, similar to the remake of The Haunting (or was it House on Haunted Hill remake?).  The premise feels vaguely like the setup for Resident Evil.

    The budget is evident, but they mostly handle that pretty well.  The movie is well lit, and the sound and pacing are both fine, making it so it's entirely watchable.  But the script is hammy, and nearly every person involved is acting as hard as they can.  Near the beginning, it feels more evident, since they go through some cliche character building moments, but no one seems charismatic or smooth enough to pull them off.  Not really worth watching, but I don't regret it.
