Good concept, poorly executed.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Still at least a point for trying. Plus the scenes "down under" have a certain good look to them. The claustrophobia can be felt through the screen. But that's almost about it (unless you count the blood effects and one scene of nudity to the positive side as well). You can't possibly cheer the acting ... if you're serious about it.Something the movie unfortunately is. Instead of playing it for fun (might have netted a few extra points here and there), it tries to be serious. It doesn't really work. If you don't mind the acting, you will mind the dialog. The "plot" is more than simple, but there are not many horror movies who have something complex to give to the viewer, so that doesn't really count. Not really worth a look ...

This is not as bad as comments describe it. Regarding the flashlights what is the problem. There is nothing wrong with flickering ghosts as no one has seen ghosts so far. Come on its only an assumption guys. It is a crypt and years back people were buried in crypts to save space and it is possible that the ghosts guard their belongings from being robbed. Yes the acting was something terrible but for that we cannot blame the script. One thing we need to keep in mind is that we are seeing a horror movie which is an imagination and does not require any thinking and not a history movie or a documentary. Also one comment wa indicating two interconnected levels in the crypt one having sky high water and the other containing neck deep. Did u observe that the levels are of different heights.

I thought of maybe a 1 but then I thought about it. It's not entirely unwatchable. It's just not something I would spend money on. And thankfully I didn't. One obviously gratuitous frontal nudity scene probably made the cut because the actress figured it may get her more work. Weak script. Poor acting. Scenes that go on forever (how long do we have to watch somebody walking through a tunnel before we get the drift). It was a joy to watch with a couple guys between calls at the firehouse. A great movie for heckling. There are some very obvious continuity problems too. Which I always find amusing so that's good for a chuckle.

What a film. Tried to be the next "Descent", but only made me want to cry. It was a confused mishmash of a story and even worse editing. First it was just a haunted crypt, then the undead appear ... and why exactly were people buried there in the first place? And the gang of thieves, they're very unbelievable characters. Like who in her right mind would go out on a 'job' while her younger brother lies dead in the back of a car? And the situation is so contrived, even their get-ups from the shirt and the shorts, down to the belt) are exactly the same! The film was directed by a certain Craig McMahon; the way it went it could easily have been directed by the late Ed McMahon ... it was so hilariously bad. Not even Sarah Oh's brief nude scene could save this film.
