Aaron River OK, Well I was really looking forward to watching this film based on the reviews I had read 'mainly on here, but i have to be honest I found my self sorely disappointed! For starters There's absolutely NO explanation as to why 4 complete strangers (only two of whom actually know each other, 'Lucia' played by Nathalie Kelley, & 'Denis' played by Nick Eversman, who are couple), led by a 5th person 'Kris' the guide played by Max Riemelt, would be meeting up in a dark car park outside of a dodgy Berlin night club in the middle of the night. To go "Urban Exploring" (Wearing there best clothes I might add, to trek through open sewers' & old deserted subways from the Third Reich.I assume it's because they'd planned to end the night in the club. Which I can only assume would end with every one in there giving them a wide berth. And who would blame them? After spending 3 hours walking through a dark, dirty, smelly rat infested subterranean maze, you have to assume you're going to smell a little funky!Secondly I really, really don't know why you wouldn't turn back after getting attacked in the first 5 min's down there by two pit bull wielding, probably "Neo Nazi" skinheads lurking about in the dark! ( I certainly wouldn't take my beautiful looking GF down there to get Gang raped, chopped up or both! (just saying! 'Warning signs.) If all that wasn't enough to make you wonder what sort of geniuses your watching, one of the girls decides the best time to take a photo of the only person down there that knows where he's going is right at the point he's walking across a , rather unsafe "bridge" (a bridge meaning a slim piece of steel girder slung across a wide gap, spanning a high drop) resulting, obviously to anyone with half an idea about human reactions, in him getting blinded /startled and falling in said gap with rather (again) obvious consequences.Jump forward about 20 min's and welcome to the fun house! we have a drugged and tied up BF, and a GF tied to a chair while being tortured by "A psycho" (cliché) now the said BF has to escape, over power the "psycho", free his GF, and hope he can find there way out of the deep, dark, hell that they have found there selves in. Should be easy right? Well not really, but it could of been a whole lot simpler if 'Lucia' (Nathalie Kelley) had chosen to go out with Ethan Hunt, or anyone with half a brain and a working set of balls between his legs! Which 'Denis' (Nick Eversman) clearly doesn't have. He could of,' I kid you not, walked out of there at least 3 times with nothing worse than a little cut to his GF ear, called the police and had the psycho locked away in a mental facility for the rest of his deranged little life! Instead he chose (which is lucky for us i guess, or really wouldn't be worth watching) to do everything you DON'T do in a horror film. You know like telling your mates I'll be right back or going back in to the house after you've just got out! Well needless to say I found my self shouting at the TV for most of the second half of the film! I never found out how or what exactly happened to the other two girls either. other than ending up part of the stew. I think they were just in the film for the lesbian kiss (actually more a lesbian peck on the lips) And please will some tell me how some one can be a psycho killer one minute and then don an apron and start mopping up floors & walls ,with a full cleaning trolley' in the middle of a open subway platforms the next! And right in the heart of Berlin (where's all the CCTV?) To many questions, not enough answers, not enough realism and far to many obvious wrong moves by the boy, unlike the killer who always seemed to be in the right place at the right time, even when one gets away and finds help after running for over a mile through tunnels and down holes!! worth a watch for the bloody bits not much else. 3/5
ameliaj247 I loved it and hated it at the same time to be honest. I loved it because I am biased in favour (yes, I am British and spell it this way) of Movies set in underground locations so this was a 'must watch' for me although I am not usually a fan of slasher/hunter style horror. This Movie is, as some as pointed out, not exactly 'original', show me a Horror Movie made in the last decade that IS 'original'? However, the film plot runs at a good pace, has an interesting story and lots of gore (one scene of which was too much for me to stomach despite having seen all the Hostel and Saw Movies without flinching....much). I hated it because of the total predictability of the main male character failing to finish off the bad guy when he had the opportunity (not listed this as a spoiler because it's pretty much a given with a Movie like this), the female character could have done the job herself here but she, also, failed to do so (no surprise there) but this is par for the course with most horror flicks so c'est la vie! This Movie is most certainly worth a viewing, it is no masterpiece but it is miles better than most of the crud available at the moment.
Christine_Plymouth_Fury1958 A lot of reviews said they gave it a lower rating than they would have because the movie did not have subtitles, but the one I watched did, so don't be put off from seeing it, since it's a film horror fans wouldn't want to miss. It reminds me a bit of Wolf Creek, except for the contrast in setting, obviously.The male protagonist of the story would irritate you to no end on the choices he makes, but you might find yourself rooting for him, all the same. One female, the one with the camera, will make you want to push her in a ravine on one scene, because their unfortunate circumstances started due to her utter stupidity. Just had to get that off my chest. Heh.I must say, you'd think, in the beginning of the film, that the villain would be different, but as the film progresses, it will prove you wrong. He actually surprised me by his evil-ness, although the torture scenes were not as bad as what I've seen in other gore-themed movies. And I actually liked that they toned it down a notch and didn't make it out to be like another Saw or Hostel movie. I'm not much of a fan of those, though I have seen my share.The characters will make you go bald from pulling your hair from its roots,because you're frustrated as **** with the choices they make. It won't make you stop from sitting at the edge of your seats though. You'll be able to watch this to the end, because it's the kind of movie that compels you to do so, even if you know it might not be categorized into the same level as some of the greats.Watch it. It's worth your time, especially for a true horror fan.
Jason VanMason If all you want is a spooky movie with monsters and atmospheric settings, this is as good as any. If you expect anything like a logical story, well, maybe not so good. The film depends on a common misconception; every big city has endless tunnels beneath and they are all connected as well as lost and forgotten. And this is nonsense. Unlike Paris which has quarries beneath it, most cities do not have anything like a connected maze of tunnels. And most tunnels, even abandoned subway stations, are used for something and are well documented.This film, like others of its type, substitutes basements or even abandoned factories with their windows covered for underground areas. One look at the brickwork of these phony tunnels is enough to reveal the sets are ordinary locations dressed as spooky tunnels. The huge size of many of the locations should tip off the viewer that they are seeing nothing more mysterious than an old warehouse.And our explorers are totally unprepared for their adventure. The have no hardhats, no first aid kit, no proper clothing, nothing but a few dinky flashlights. If not for their "guide" somehow toting 5 sets of rubber waders in his tiny backpack they would never have made it through a flooded tunnel. We are further told that scrawny teens can climb 50 feet, hand over hand, on a thin rope. And thats up and down. Small wonder the actual climbing is not shown! And of course the abandoned tunnels are full of improbable characters who survive on.....what....rats? If you like to suspend your disbelief totally, you will probably enjoy this film. But if, like me, obvious plot holes spoil the experience you may wish you watched something else.
