Critic score: 15/100 - User score: 8.8/10 - This falls into the genre of movies called "why don't you just move to a new house?!" I understand that it's not always easy to move, but these movies are always about rich white people. You know they own more than one property. Just get out of there. Unfortunately this type of horror movie doesn't' fit into my horror movie synopsis machine, but let's try anyway. "When a family moves into a haunted house, a dark force comes after them to set it right." Eh, kind of still works. Maybe my method isn't so bad. Horror fans love horror, critics don't. We know this by now.
What critics said: "'Darkness' was clearly tossed together like salad in the editing room, since it's little more than the sum of its unshocking shock cuts."
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
