Performances: 4/10
Screenplay: 3/10
Special Effects: N.A.
Costumes/Makeup: 6/10
Editing: 4/10
Cinematography: 7/10
Score/Soundtrack: 3/10 

Verdict: "Dark Crimes" may be only 92 minutes long, but feels much, much longer. Monotone acting, cringe-worthy dialogue, and unnecessarily long scenes made me lose interest in the plot very early on. In the right hands, it could've been worth the watch, but as it stands, I wouldn't recommend spending your time on it.

Final Grade: 3/10
