if this by any chance means "light things so i can actually see the things that are meant to be spooky and dramatic", and/or "a gloomy plot element doesn't require the colours to be washed out", then +1.

It does indeed.

My impression was that it's not that the scenes had been lit badly - they looked like they probably contained full contrast and colour depth in the original - but that the subsequent "grading" (colour-correction, as it's sometimes known) process had been used to desaturate the hell out of them and push them toward an extremely shadowy tone, to the point that when I saw the first few scenes in the cinema I thought the print was knackered, rather than anything to do with the filmmaking itself.
