"Dark Water" is yet another PG-13 remake of a Japanese movie... Jesus Christ this era is getting old. Sure "The Ring" worked but things went down hill with "The Grudge" and it dug itself in a hole with "Dark Water"... Now it's stuck and it's crying to be dug up... This useless piece of garbage of a remake stars Jennifer Connelly who was the only one who gave a decent performance. I personally didn't find her attractive in this movie. The overall plot of the movie is about Connelly and her 6 year old daughter who move to a creepy-looking apartment where mysterious things begin to occur, including lots of muggy water... Creepy huh? This movie has no scares whatsoever. During the beginning and most of the middle, I was waiting for something exciting to happen but nothing did. Toward the end, that's where the 'spirits' begin to show and it's not scary at all. In fact, I found myself laughing at some parts... Now that's bad. If you want a good ghost movie, rent "White Noise". If you want a good PG-13 Japanese remake, rent "The Ring". Even though I hated "The Grudge", at least that kept me entertained. In fact I almost fell asleep at times during "Dark Water" and if it wasn't for the loud music, I wouldn't be posting my review for this. Truely a waste. 0/4
