Gina Pulasky (Helen Hunt) is a rookie cop in a small town who goes undercover to help catch a suspected child murderer (Stephen Webber).
IN THE COMPANY OF DARKNESS is a superior made-for-TV thriller. There's plenty of suspense, in spite of the fact that the killer's identity is obvious from the beginning. Ms. Hunt is exceptional in her role, taking Officer Pulasky in some unexpected directions. Webber is quietly frightening, playing Kyle Timler as a more unemotional psychopath, rather than the typical bug-eyed maniac. Jeff Fahey gets to play a good guy for a change, and comes across as genuine as Gina's love interest.
This movie is well worth watching all the way through. The finale is especially rewarding...
