Afraid of the Dark (1991)



This always intriguing London-based psychological drama, which starts off being a mystery thriller about a series of escalating attacks committed against the members of a community of blind women, turns up not to be about what you think it is - which is a shame because when the movie inverts suddenly halfway through, making you feel like you've finally had the bandages removed after an eye operation, part of you wishes the first half of the story continued --- although the second half, centred on Lucas, a young boy with a worrying imagination, is equally creepy and compelling.

★★★☆☆
