Dark Water

Spells deep trouble for those wanting a good movie. It borrowed ideas from Ring, Grudge, and a couple others. While the acting wasn't terrible, the dialogue was. I liken it to an orca movie, with enough red herrings to keep most orca well fed. I think, perhaps I am wrong, it was a Lifetime (for women) movie that actually hit the theaters, in the way that it victimized a woman, then her child, then an unknown child, matched with paranoia both founded and unfounded. It would strike a win or "liked it" category with women who watch Lifetime channel movies. I, surprisingly, didn't like it. I like Jennifer Connely, but it wasn't a good movie.
