A man accidentally runs over a little girl and the girl's grandfather places a curse on him that causes...well, not much to happen. Dark August has a potentially interesting concept, but does very little with it. While some of the brief images of hooded figures lurking outside the home of our lead character are well done, that's about the only tool the filmmakers have in their toolbox to try and build tension or give the audience the shivers. There's a shocking lack of urgency throughout the film that really drags it down.
