The Dark Harbor

A lonely fisherman discovers that a woman and boy are living in his cupboard when they appear in the background of a dating video he has made.

Several humorous scenes throughout, but the characters are really, really weak basically the whole way through. The main character has an annoying tendency to pantomime instead of speaking as well, which I guess is supposed to characterise him as a buffoon, but just comes across as weird.

With no strong characterisation, it's hard to really care as the plot moves forward. Individual moments are okay, but as a whole piece it really doesn't work that well.
