INSIDE ATL REVIEW: A Dark Place doesn’t disappoint the title of the movie! A brilliant performance by Andrew Scott he embodied his role as Donald Delvin, good acting performances by the entire cast as well. Thrillers usually get you to bite, but does A Dark Place get you hooked? Simon Fellows does a good job doing just that, he completed an impressive job of directing this film. The plot was strong out the gate but you do feel like it could’ve tightened up a bit towards the ending, But despite that, A Dark Place is a Dark Gem!
