The children of a dying father return to the isolated parental home to see him on his last days.
'The Dark and The Wicked' is a horror film that's completely based on atmosphere and directing ability. The acting, the well-controlled and well-choreographed rhythm, the well-placed special effects and the visual effects all contribute without a doubt to the construction of a film (or the promise of a film) as horror fans only dream of. Too bad it's all for an almost empty and meaningless story that does not rise up to expectations born out of the ever growing and gradual suspense.
