The movie's tongue-in-bloody-cheek satire of psychobabble sets it apart.

Reviews for Alone in the Dark
The premise isn't plausible and Palance, Landau and Pleasence deserve more screen time, but this has enough off-beat and darkly comic moments to make it passable. And the final scene is a hoot.
Palance, Pleasance, and Landau ensure that, while it might get a little dry and silly at times, Alone in the Dark sure isn't boring.
