Dark Horse (2011)

Movie_Analyst: Watched 'Dark Horse' with Selma Blair, had completely forgotten it was a Todd Solondz film until it finished, uncomfortable romantic distain
traceyannlowe: Ugh, I picked a Todd Solondz movie called Dark Horse to watch. Remember when he was good? I haven't enjoyed anything since Storytelling.
DarkHorse_TM: I thought people were reflecting on the year of 2012 didn't realise the movie was on TV. #awkward
Michael_Glor: So, 'Spawn' is a horrible movie? My dad was right about these things. Comics are horrible for kids. Disobey. #marvel #dc #darkhorse
scottymac1581: Wow that was a depressing movie #DarkHorse
