“Ash And Dust” (** out of four) was a mild suspense melodrama about two couples (Michael Swatton, Anne-Carolyne Binnette, and others) on a vacation who find a mysterious box and then are subsequently tormented by a vicious gang (Dave Coleman, Blake Canning, and others) who want to keep the box and its secrets hidden. Good-looking film is atmospherically lensed and well-made but never builds sufficient momentum and thus doesn’t have the impact that it should. At least it’s better than “The Box” which it in some ways resembles.
