ShangLuda Admirable film.
Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
jimmyb-03299 Ok i gave it a good go but had to keep taken breaks because all the shakey cameras were giving me a headace.The idea was good and the creepy people in the tunnels were cool but when i saw the burning car i was over it.So stupid!
efeldman-93059 A pretty good watch for the genre. Many interesting historical elements throughout. It includes symbolism from Dante's Inferno for a larger picture and some decent scares. Worth a watch if you're a fan of the hokey horror genre
Jackson Booth-Millard The poster for this scary movie was very recognisable, the Eiffel Tower upside with a pattern of skulls underneath, it was obvious where the movie was set, but I didn't know what to expect, I hoped for something relatively scary or interesting. Basically in Iran in Aramaic, young alchemy scholar Scarlett (Perdita Weeks) discovers a riddle on the head stone of Nicholas Flamel, the alchemist believed to have discovered the Philosopher's Stone, and finds a rose key that may help her to find the historical stone. The tombstone riddle pinpoints the location of the Philosopher's Stone as being in Paris, France, she travels there, meeting up with her former boyfriend George (Ben Feldman) and her cameraman Benji (Edwin Hodge). They conclude that the stone is below the Parisian Catacombs, with their guide Papillon (François Civil); his girlfriend Souxie (Marion Lambert); and their friend Zed (Ali Marhyar), they go into the deep uncharted tunnels. But the explorers get more than they bargained for, when they do find the stone and remove it, they are trapped in the hellish underground maze, with demonic visions and chambers collapsing on them. One by one, team members venture too far, and suffer bloody deaths, until only Scarlett, George and Zed are left, and they realise that the only way out, strangely, is to go down, as seen earlier on a Gnostic Star of David, an artefact symbolising the notion "As above, so below". Eventually the remaining survivors find what appears to be a manhole cover above them, they jump through it, and find themselves the right way up on the streets of Notre Dame, they are now safe. The story is inspired by Dante's Inferno stuff, and the film is presented as a "found footage" movie, there are some reasonable gory and Blair Witch style apparition moments that keep you interested, it is not the scariest thing you will watch, but it's not a bad horror. Okay!
jerralagbayani In this lost footage horror this group of people descend into madness after they venture deep into the catacombs of Paris for the fabled Philosopher's Stone. First it begins as a simple climb over bones but after finding a secret opening within the walls they find themselves lost, confused, and worst of all mentally disturbed. I rate this a 7/10 because it's one of those lost footage films that never got much credit even though they were as entertaining as Jeepers Creepers.
