Dark Honeymoon (2008 Video)
5/10
The no-tell motel
29 April 2008
Warning: Spoilers
It appears some people don't really get to know who they are marrying until they begin their honeymoon. That is, if by chance, or design, they didn't get to be more "intimate" before the wedding. This seems to be the case with the young couple at the center of the story. Paul, the young groom, didn't have a clue as to his bride Kathryn's personality, or even her strong feelings about religion. She had a few issues that prove to be incompatible with her new married status.

Their honeymoon at the "Bates-like" motel in Oregon, turns out to be something Paul didn't bargain for. What starts out as a pleasant trip turns out to be a nightmare. He begins realizing Kathryn is not all he thought she was, but either, he is too naive not to notice, or he has been living in a dream world. Suffice it to say that Kathryn is not quite the woman Paul had in mind when he married her.

Evidently, "Dark Honeymoon" has gone to video before its release. We had no information on this film when it was shown on a cable channel when we were overseas. It appears it was not even released in the US yet, as there are no comments submitted to this site.

One thing though, David O'Malley is not afraid to show a lot of blood to his viewers. The most fun was to watch Lindy Booth getting rid of the people not worth to be on this earth, and seeing more experienced actors like the late Roy Scheider, Darryl Hannah, Tia Carrere, and Eric Roberts in bit roles to help the director, no doubt. On the other hand, we didn't care for Nick Cornish as the husband.
