The Gothic, seaside atmosphere was excellent and well put-to-use in the film, and the creepy little story was well written with a satisfying conclusion. Overall, "Half Light" is a good little thriller film that caught me off guard, I was expecting something along the lines of cheap straight-to-video garbage. The ending was a bit of a twist-ending, blending real-life horror with a supernatural addition, but it fit well and I wasn't disappointed with it (like some twist-endings leave me). The story was rather original, and very subtle with overall good writing. The settings are great and really spooky on many occasions, particularly the small cottage and the old lighthouse. Her performance was realistic and fit the film well. ![]() Demi Moore was great, she's a pretty believable actress from what I've seen. It's kind of hard to explain, I can't really put my finger on it, but the whole atmosphere was foreboding and spooky. I liked the whole feeling the film had, it was isolated and eerie. There are a lot of dark gray and foggy tones in the film, which add even more to the atmosphere. This was a surprisingly chilling little thriller film, the atmosphere of the whole secluded ocean village was unique and neat, the little village set itself sitting right on the sandy beach. ![]() ![]() Real life terror and supernatural events drive Rachel into hysteria from there, as she tries to unravel a complex mystery.
