January. It's a terrible time for new movies. (Although that's not entirely true:
Once Upon a Time in Anatolia hits theaters this month.) But more often than not you've got junk like
Beneath the Darkness. It's a low-budget thriller starring Dennis Quaid as a small-time mortician who's Up To No Good. Dreadful, dreadful stuff. By the way, the film's press notes point out that
Beneath the Darkness was filmed in the same Texas town that
The Tree of Life was. So, you know, there's something. My review is up at
The Village Voice.
