Did you people see the same film I saw?

A Brilliant Conflict

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Blistering performances.

This awful film shows, above all others, that you can't just take a genuinely creepy real life setting and make a successful film out of it. The terrible acting from the scantily clad 'pretty' girls does nothing to improve what is a a poorly filmed, dire storyline and complete waste of time from beginning to end. It is neither scary or sexy and if you think you'll stick with it in the hope that it improves....don't. It doesn't. The film makers obviously think that near nudity and some effects equals success. Really ? When there are some intelligent scary films out there the reliance on a boob shot and some gloop is lamentable. There aren't even some basic shock moments. Creaking chains and old hospital trolleys have been done time and again and in every case done so much better.

Oh, I'm sure that at first glance the cover poster wit the woman in the gas mask draws those post-apocalyptic and virus-type film fans in, but photoshopping a gas mask onto something doesn't make it a good movie. Death Tunnel sounded so cool to me at first with its description...After the first few minutes I was ready to run outside to the coal mines behind my house and scream. What an awful movie! What is it with horror movies made in the 21st century with these stupid women in tank tops dancing at the bar? I don't understand! And the acting, terrible! They really scraped the bottom of the barrel, I've seen high school drama classes do better! The soundtrack was horrible, special effects even worse, and the most pathetic of all was how they tried to give the into a vintage film look and failed miserably.Stick with The Crazies (1973), Warning Sign (1985) or the Omega Man (1971) if you're a fan of biohazard films. Don't bother watching this.

Death Tunnel (2005) 1/2 (out of 4) Horrendously bad movie about five college girls who are put inside a haunted sanatorium where they must go through five floors of terror but things take a turn for the worse when they start being murdered off. If you're not familiar with any of the story then you might want to check out some of the TV shows and documentaries that have dealt with Waverly Hills Sanatorium. It's a true place that is considered to be one of the most frightening and haunted places out there but this film, shot entirely on location there, wouldn't tell you that. I've seen quite a few things on Waverly Hills and they've all been pretty creepy but that's certainly not the case with this very bad film. I'm really not sure where to start but I guess it's fair to say that the majority of the blame has to go towards director, writer, editor and cinematographer Philip Adrian Booth. I'm really not sure what exactly he was going for but the film comes off as a major rip of SAW, THE SHINING and THE RING. The added goodie is that they're shooting in a real haunted location but this never comes across for a number of reasons. What I hated most about this movie was that it's simply very annoying. We're given all sorts of suicide worthy sound effects that are just so annoying that you'll be wanting to hit the stop button right there. Just as worse is the type of editing, which results in a lot of fast cuts that try to "shock" when when scenes cut to violence, death or gore but it just comes across very silly. I'm really not sure what the director was wanted by the Waverly Hills place has all sorts of atmosphere but all of it is missing here, which is something I thought could never happen. The performances are all bland, the story full of non-sense and in the end this is just a really bad film.

well the acting was the worst i have seen all year . and its 90 min,s ill never get back . i fell like i was robed of a part of my life ! i did like the set in side the hospital tho . maybe if it was made with different actors it will be a better movie . there was a good amount of boobs tho so that gets a 3 star on my scale . i didn't like all the random flash backs they were not kneaded ! all they did was waste film and money ! . the idea of hunted mentally home is very old ! . it didn't make sense and it was not spooky !. i am not knowing why it did not work as a movie ? the CGI was bad and not furnished well . the crying just went on and on and on . and why did the ghost need five girls for ? . there was not even a good fight in the movie . if you are 12 this movie is grate but i am 34 and even the 14 year old girls that watch this movie say it was bad they did not even watch the hole movie . this DVD will make a good clay bird ! . .
