Producer Paul W.S. Anderson spoke with SciFi Wire briefly about the film, saying: "... it's also got a very twisted ghost story worked into it," he said. "It's got elements of Don't Look Now in it, and that's the movie that I would relate it to the most. It's really f--king scary, but it's also got some very good character elements in there. Sean Bean and Maria Bello are just terrific actors. They look great together, and they feed off one another. I think there's a little bit of magic about the movie."

The movie is based on a British book called Sheep by Simon Maginn. Fawcett talked with Fango some time ago about the film saying... "It’s a nice little psychological horror tale. It has the feel of a ghost story, although it’s not a ghost story. I really wanted to do a smaller film, with a small cast. I love movies in that vein, like THE SHINING, THE OTHERS, THE DEVIL’S BACKBONE—that kind of vibe is what I’m trying to get from THE DARK. It’s a pretty creepy, sick little story."
