Amazon.com Humanity's fear of the dark provides Darkness Falls with some anxiety and fuels some jolts of fear from things popping out of nowhere. A kindly woman, who used to give children gold coins in exchange for their lost baby teeth, was hanged for a murder she didn't commit; in her last moments she laid a curse on the town (which has the unlikely name of Darkness Falls). So over the years the ghost of this woman has murdered various children because they saw her when she came to collect their teeth. In the present day, a boy who evaded her clutches returns to town as an adult in order to help the young brother of his childhood sweetheart--and from there this incoherent, inane movie is one long chase sequence without a glimmer of imagination or intelligence. --Bret Fetzer

You will pay for tooth decay June 16, 2009 C. Christopher Blackshere (stalking you from the shadows) No molar is safe. The tooth fairy is coming for your soul...BWAHAHAHAH!!!! Aquafresh will not save you! Yeah, this is as ridiculous as it sounds. A demonic creature comes to collect its prize while the youth are sleeping. But this demented fairy gets infuriated when it finds out that little kids don't have grillz?!? The little buggers keep sticking rotten little baby teeth under their pillow, which have no trade in value at the pawn shop. WTF? I kept expecting this to be a movie about bad dreams or mentally deranged children or something. But no, it really is about a tooth fairy (sigh). In all fairness, this was the best tooth fairy movie I have ever seen.
A NICE LITTLE CREEPER May 18, 2009 Geary A., Jones If you're looking for lotsa' gore, gratuitous sex scenes, and the usual cliches that seem to drive the so-called plots of most horror movies don't bother watching DARKNESS FALLS. There are some nice thrills, plenty of atmosphere, and some genuinely decent acting by the leads. Liebesman did a good job pacing the movie as well. It's certainly not in the league of CARRIE, HOLLOWEEN, or THE EXORCIST, but it's far from boring.
Dullness Falls... April 22, 2009 Bindy Sue Fronkuenschtein (under the rubble) I don't know what it is that drives hollywood to crank out movies like this. Well, okay, it has something to do w/ corporations making zillions of dollars on whatever they decide we "must" see, but I digress. DARKNESS FALLS is another generic spooker that starts out fairly cool, then descends quickly into re-tread territory. It could have been a very original ghost story w/ a terrifying ghoul. Instead, it's a kid-vid w/ a few "bad" words and some minor blood tossed in. I have seen some well-made PG-13 movies (The Ring, The Grudge, Disturbia, etc.). DARKNESS FALLS was a bland movie that I wanted to enjoy. Alas, I didn't...
Great Movie January 19, 2009 R. R. Lee (Indiana) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a very good movie. The kids were scared, but they love it. They refuse to put another tooth under their pillow. I just love it. It's a must have in your collection.
Watch Your Expectations April 18, 2008 JPD (USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Whether this movie is any good or not depends on what you expect from it. There are a few moments you can find yourself startled, but not often enough. On the other hand, the screeching of Matilda (the evil Tooth Fairy) becomes pretty funny over the course of the movie. Overall it's not a movie I'd buy if I lost my copy.
