In Search Of The European Dream...

DESCENT INTO DARKNESS chronicles Sorgoi Prakov's (Rafael Cherkaski) trip through Europe. It starts out like any other tourist-made video, taking in the sites and landmarks of Paris. There's a very bouncy, light feel to the proceedings. Prakov himself seems to be an amiable enough chap.To be honest, if this was all there was to this movie it would still be worth watching, due to the humor and charm involved. Prakov is infectiously naive and silly.Of course, things are about to change drastically.This is a very well-made "found footage"-type film that really comes across as authentic. The contrivance of having a camera on all the time is handled in a believable way. As things start to come apart, and Prakov falls deeper into the abyss, we actually feel the desperation and madness building.The final act of this movie is extremely disturbing. Be sure to reinforce your guts with titanium before watching this one!One of the most effective movies of its kind. Not for the squeamish nor the easily offended...

Twisted.

As movies about losing your mind goes, this felt very realistic. The main actor was nothing short of amazing. And as someone that has had his time with drinking and drugs and bad luck, this depiction of a fall into insanity seemed all too real.The editing/direction here was some of the most sure-fire I've seen. There's no fat in this movie. And much is left to the imagination.I'd been waiting some time to see this and WAS NOT disappointed.
