After seeing Searching I was left enjoying the format of watching something from the perspective of the screen. This film managed to undo that enjoyment. Even though both, by the nature of the story lines, had people walking in and out of shot, Dark Web was a lot more chaotic and at times quite difficult to focus on with there being several people involved in each scene.

It's a passable horror film (it doesn't really feel like a horror film, but I'm at a loss as to where else is could be classified), and while I didn't see where the ending was going to go, you can make an educated guess that it's only going to come out one way... badly.

The story intrigued me enough to let me sit through the film, but I don't think I'd need to see it again. With the back and forth on the screen and the annoying digitised baddie appearing I don't think I would actually be able to see it again without getting a headache.

A Tainted Soul
By A.W. Rene
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️


Sixteen-year-old Annaya Roth is fighting for her life to fit
in at yet another new school—and to escape the Dead.

Annaya and her mother, Samantha, just moved to the small
mountain town of Asherville. The people there are nice enough. They smile and
wave—but Annaya knows to not get too close.

Samantha is tired of running. She just wants to keep her
daughter safe. So, in one last desperate attempt to save Annaya—Samantha moves
them to the one place she never wanted to step foot in again.

This was certainly an interesting read and a little chaotic. It’s gruesome in parts and I really loved that the author wasn’t afraid to be graphic. A few time I felt down right sorry for this girl at 16 her life goes from one disaster to another. The dead really like her to know they are around.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
