Here are 3 pics of my monitor performing in the dark.
2 are of Prototype in-game and another of Will Smith in Hancock.

Just to show that there does not appear to be any backlight bleeding happening.
Aside from all the specs, that is all I want my next monitor to do - not show any bleeding in the dark.
