Brian T. Whitlock (GOWBTW) Family tragedy seems to be affect the young people often. For Celia(Monica Keena) losing a loved one seems to have taken its toll on her. When she was born, her mother died. Then she has the friend who saved her from a on-coming car when she was young. On her 21st birthday, she goes to a fraternity party where she is drugged, raped, and killed. Talk about having a hard life. She ends up being the next family tragedy, and no close relative to tell the news. Only her "friend" Donovan(David Anders) tells her who to avoid, and who to trust. Donovan was her guardian angel throughout her life, until she learns he's not the trusting person he claims to be. She does find the guy who drugged and raped her, before she died. And he gets his just desserts after he commits suicide. Seems like the only family member who was at peace was her mother. The only person in the family who could be saved was her grandfather, Joe(Tim Thomerson). He was always around Celia until his death, and knowing who Donovan worked for, made her think for herself. I guess she knew what it takes to be a guardian angel. I know that Celia will definitely earn her wings. This horror is intriguing, and some form of biblical matter was mentioned. It was worth the watch. 3 out of 5 stars!

miss_kristyd Just saw the movie, and it was pretty bad. Usually, when one watches a "horror" movie, you don't expect great dialouge. But this bordered on ridiculous! Monica Keena ("Celia") might have possibly given one of the worst performances I've seen. And the special effects certainly reflected the very low budget....come on guys, flashing lights as an effect for EVERY SINGLE PLOT POINT??? It kind of felt like when the a.v. kids in high school make a horror movie with their dad's camcorder.Okay, so with that slam out of the way, I do have to say that David Anders, who played the guardian angel Donovan, was actually quite good in the movie. He delivered the aforementioned awful dialouge with poise and interest, and I found myself rooting for him instead of the supposed heroine. I hope he starts getting larger roles because he is really an untapped talent (not counting Alias of course. he was amazing in it, but seeing as how that's over...).

GiGi GiGi Well i think this movie is based on a great idea ... but damn' the acting is poor. And it wasn't such a hard to play role... isn't it??For the good vs evil movies fan .. well you should see this movie once... bun never try it twice or more ;D!Such a shame... It could be a very good movie.For sure isn't a great movie, but i think you should find it interesting after all.The action.... the storyline... sometimes goes far beyond simple logic... why she keeps going outside? why the soul-eaters so fast sometimes.. in other situations trip on the stairs?... but... than again... isn't a great movie...:D

wrlang Left in Darkness wasn't actually all that bad of a film. The description on the back left me very wary of what I was about to watch. The beginning was rather odd with the star as a little girl whose deafness to her grandfathers recommendations didn't bode well for a long life. The dreaded rape scene wasn't as horrible as I thought it would be, considering what some twisted directors have done with the subject. The story is about a woman who is raised by her grandparents after her mother dies giving birth and father disappears. She is killed at an animal house type of party by the typical drunken sociopath frat boys. She wakes up dead between heaven and hell and must fight for her soul using vague clues given to her by dead relatives and a guardian angel of sorts. It moves relatively quickly and has some good horror scenes. The editing was good and the camera work was good. The dialog was a little flat. The acting wasn't too bad and there were some seasoned actors in bit parts.
