Default Grainy/Snowy dark areas of certain movie scenes.

Hi I'm new to this entire forum and have much to learn about HDTV. Late last year I purchased a 50" Samsung Plasma ( FP-T5094W ) and a Sony Blu-Ray Player ( BDP-S300 ); I was wondering as to why certain movies display a "snowy/grainy" effect on the dark areas of certain scenes. For instance, a movie like the "Orphanage" has this problem while "Cloverfield" does not; why is that? Same thing happens on DirecTV HD movie channels; some have it really bad and others do not have it at all. Is it because Cloverfield was shot with an HD camera and the Orphanage with a standard camera? Please help me to understand and advise me on whether I can correct this problem somehow if at all possible.
