Much like Boll's previous film adaptation of ''[[House of the Dead (film)|House of the Dead]]'', ''Alone in the Dark'' was met with a tremendously negative reaction both from filmgoers and movie critics. [[In Name Only|There is very little connection to the games the movie is purported to be based on]], and the film itself is full of bad special effects, mediocre acting, [[Plot Hole|plot holes]], and lots of [[Padding]] to attempt to cover up the plot holes.
[[The Agony Booth]] [https://web.archive.org/web/20130917041548/http://www.agonybooth.com/recaps/Alone_in_the_Dark.aspx has taken a critical look at it], as did [https://web.archive.org/web/20130924030659/http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/thatguywiththeglasses/nostalgia-critic/11343-alone The Nostalgia Critic] (with help from [[Atop the Fourth Wall|Linkara]] and [[The Spoony Experiment|Spoony]], since TNC was so traumatized from watching the film alone that he had a stroke).
Despite the movie's critical and commercial failure, a direct-to-video sequel entitled ''Alone in the Dark II'' was released in 2008. Uwe Boll produced, but did not direct, the second movie (the actual directors, Peter Scheerer and Michael Roesch, were also the directors for the ''[[House of the Dead (film)|House of the Dead]]'' sequel).
