To all the critics of Dark Floors
This is directed to all those who have been harsh on this movie due to a confusing plot. One thing that must be remembered when watching this movie is a foreign film. It is a finnish film made that was never really intended to be released in the US. that being said, the monsters in this movie were the heavy metal band Lordi. In the movie they play "themselves", so unless you know of Lordi, you probaly wont understand what they represent. The costumes used by Lordi are the same costumes the use on stage when the band plays, in fact, the members of Lordi, dont like to be seen outside of their costumes, because to them it is the monsters that make the music, not the humans inside. The even went to give each monster its own bio. Mr.Lordi, the guy bands lead singer/ the monster in the parking area in the movie has the ability to effortlessly transport himself and others across dimensional barriers, and ability it seems he may use when the cast is in the elevator when they get stuck in the beginning. The other band membersin their monster persona are tasked with fighting a trans-dimentional war with Mr.Lordi's enemies. None of this is explained in the english release of this movie, and that could be because it either wasnt explained in the Finnish version, since in Finland Lordi is a hugely popular band with the members monster persona's bios are fairly well known, or the explaination might have gotten lost in the translation of the movie. Any movie that gets translated fromone language to another tends to lose something in the transition, especially if the original script uses alot of slang or phrases that dont hold the same meaning in another language. Personally, i am a fan of the Lordi, and while i still have a few questions about the movie, knowing about the band definatly helped me understand this movie fairly well. All in all, i liked this film, it just needs some research on who Lordi are to understand that which is going on, but considering that it lists Lordi as playing themselves and its full title is Dark Floors-The Lordi Motion Picture, one should realize that some knowledge of Lordi might be needed.
