I heard alot of good things about this movie over the years and was expecting a first class frightener. Dark of the night boast a few eerie moments and a pretty good script but unfortunatly has its share of flaws as well. Heather bolton (sporting some ronald mcdonald hair) purchases a used jag and and is quickly regretful after some spooky noises and unsettling premonitions she has while driving it. These moments in the film are pretty effective unfortunatly what could have been sheer terror veer off into heathers ability to act like someone who would actually expeirence this unnerving phenomenon. She talks to herself and yells at the car "your not going to scare me your just a car"! also the music in the film is kinda corny taking away from the atmosphere of dread that the story is trying to deliver. On the plus side the movie is pretty good at telling its story and with a running time of 80 minutes wont try the viewers patients. Overall not a bad movie to curl up with next to a loved one on a stormy night (or if your like me alone with a half pint of hagen das)lol....tear.

In this ghost story, strange things begin to happen to a woman after she buys a used car with a spooky history.

Just to let that "EUROPEANS" as you state in your review had nothing to do with this film. Were you alsleep during this film. You state that you can only see a trunk opening and a window roll down. So you missed the part where mary carmichael appears in the car and gets her revenge, or the part where you hear her being strangled in the back.

Okay, its not gonna get an oscar, but the acting is good, especially david letch, and heather bolton. The film is quite old, so its not going to compare to todays horror flicks where you have screaming bimbos with blonde hair running in to dark rooms with no weapons, being chased by a killer in a mask (YAWN).

You review was unfair to people who might want to purchase this movie, also you might want to get a geography lesson, as NEW ZEALAND does not come under Europe. Thank you.

This movie is a wast of time I had written a good review without seeing the whole film and based it on recomedations.Its crap all the car ever does is roll down its window ot unlatch the trunk that's it then in the last 5 minuites it drives by itself and crash for no reason.I can't understand all the hype I got from people.Europeans must have differnt ideas on what makes a horror movie because this is one stinkaroo
