Overview

Blades in the Darkness is a thriller and horror film released in 2022 with a runtime of one hour and twenty-three minutes. The film begins in Tirana in 1997, where the chaos following the fall of the dictatorship and communism leads to a bloody civil war. During this tumultuous time, a teenager or boy named Matia is harassed by other children and playmates, and in an attempt to escape, he hides inside one of the concrete bunkers left scattered across the country by the regime. He never comes out again, and in that spooky abandoned building, he discovers something scary and unthinkable that changes everything. The story then moves to Tirana in 2022, when Adrian returns from ten years in London with his girlfriend Nua and their friends Davide and Giulia. The group carries twenty-five thousand euros in cash and a plan to buy a disused bunker from the former communist regime and turn it into the most fashionable and cool club in the city. However, Adrian has already spent the money to pay off a debt unknown to the others, and below ground, a horror hidden for decades awaits them, which is thirsty for blood and armed with lethal blades.
