That would end the movie fast.

Instead, what this film does is to continue for approximately 95 minutes including credits. Nobody is going to leave alive and that is too abruptly established at the start. Nobody at Outpost 30 even knows their fate, but that certainly will not stop them from trying to make it up to the surface. Maybe if the eight survivors can get out of the hut,...

Vampires). This low budget Aussie-lensed sci-fi horror movie tells the story of eight people trapped in a secret underground research facility, at the mercy of a horde of terrifying zombie-like creatures. With supplies and weapons running low the survivors must put aside their differences and band together in order to find out way out alive. However the constantly mutating monstrous hordes are not their only problem, an ancient evil has been unleashed and one of them may not be...

The Dark Lurking PosterThere is a lot of interesting, dark writing occurring at Film-Book.com and this horror aficionado is taking notice.

According to 24 Frames Per Second, the film will have its debut on V.O.D. sometime during the end of October/beginning of November, with a proper DVD release to follow.
