You mean, good dark films with a tropical setting?

Not sure how the setting itself is going to be dark although I guess it's possible.

Anyway a couple of suggestions:

— Hell In The Pacific
Lee Marvin & Toshiro Mifune are enemy soldiers alone on an island in WWII. There are some fun bits. Bit ham-fistedly allegorical, but what do you expect with John Boorman?

— The Mosquito Coast
Maybe. Weird little thing about a mad American inventor guy who drags his family off into the middle of nowhere. Harrison Ford thought it was his best performance. It's his only film that didn't make a profit, haha.

I highly recommend watching Pacifiction. The movie is very long and slow, but the tropical setting and visuals are incredible. One of the most beautiful movies I've watched in a very long time that has become one of my main visual references in my own video/photo work.
I don't mind long/slow movies, but it is rather exceptionally slow, that being said I was completely hooked throughout the movie because of the visuals.

Here's a short clip just showcasing some of the visuals

Sorry OP, I overlooked you were looking for "dark" tropical settings.
The story of Pacifiction will fit that bit then as it's about atomic threats/anxiety in French Polynesia, but the visuals are anything but dark.
>>
>>221292795
thanks for the suggestion anon, looks very cool.
i'll take anything with tropical setting
>>
>>221292866
Maybe not "dark" as in the setting, it's very vivid and bright, but there are very dark themes in "The White Lotus" first season set in Hawaii. Especially near the end its getting really fucked up.
>>
Manhunter, in a way
>>
>>221293174
the third season is tropical too (Thailand), and its even more darker, but I didn't find the season very good tho

There's also Diamond Head with Charlton Heston, but I haven't seen it yet, so can't say if it's actually any good, but it's set in Hawaii so it fits

I didn't know Charlton Heston was a metalhead.

If we're going back to the 30s and 40s I have to add Isle of Fury (1936) starring Bogart. A nearly flawless 60 minutes.

Lot of horror I could rec including plenty of schlockino but probably not what you're looking for.
