''See No Evil' doesn't deserve the title of horror film

It would seem that no director in the history of film has had a weirder trajectory than Gregory Dark. Following a lengthy career directing porn in the 1980s and '90s — his credits include "Black Throat," "Hootermania" and the "Between the Cheeks" series — Dark moved on to music videos, including clips for Britney Spears and Mandy Moore. And now he's behind the camera for a mainstream feature film, the horror flick "See No Evil," though to call it legitimate would be a bit of an overstatement. The actors keep their clothes on, but "See No Evil" is no less gratuitous and exploitative than his previous offerings. Read the full review

TO SUM UP
Psychopathic killer Jacob Goodnight is holed up in the long-abandoned and rotting Blackwell Hotel, alone with his nightmares until eight petty criminals show up for community service duty along with the cop who put a bullet in Jacob's head four years ago.

The Associated Press: D
"Nothing about See No Evil is scary. With its run-down, abandoned setting, which is lousy with roaches, rats and flies, it's just dark, dirty and gross. "
