I love MTI, I really do—they try harder than pretty much anyone in the business. It’s really only too bad that when they try, they just can’t get a lot of results.
Every time I pick up a new MTI title (and I stick with them because I always hope they’ll manage to pull off improvement) , like today’s little pick, Dark Secrets, (which will be available for you folks to pick up April 7th) I’m always a little impressed and I get me a nice shot of hope injected like adrenaline directly into my heart. Yeah, just like in Pulp Fiction. But anyway…like I said—I take a look at that creepy box art and that well put together back of the box description and I usually end up thinking, wow, this could REALLY be awesome.
Sadly, the actual movie never seems to live up to the incredible promise that MTI puts out. And I’ll sum up why.
In Dark Secrets, there’s trouble afoot for celebrity A-listers Darryl and Lori Van Dyke, whose daughter has just recently disappeared under what can really only be called mysterious circumstances. Two detectives are put on the very high-profile case, but neither can shake the feeling that they’ve seen this somewhere before. In fact, the kidnapping of the Van Dykes’ daughter looks oddly like the work of a serial kidnapper who has struck twice before, but with noticeable differences. With no clues, no ransom note and no motive, the detectives race against time to find the kidnapper and his victims before it’s too late.
