Trench 11

Trench 11 borrows from films like The Bunker and mixes in elements of the TV series The Strain, in a WWI setting.

The best thing you can say about this upper end of the budgetary spectrum B grade film its is competently done. The sets are good, the special effects good and the acting is, well, good.

Sadly there is nothing that makes this film "great" or even a little special. Don't be surprised therefore, if a month or so from now you can't remember the title or much more than the general outline of the story. A watchable but forgettable rating of 6/10 from me.

Got enticed into seeing this film after watching the trailer n found it to b a decent one time watch. Fans of Outpost, Blood creek, Deathwatch, may like this low budget film. As a fan of horror films set during the world war, especially dealing with the nazi occult n nazi experiments, i enjoyed this film. Much better than ur regular zombie/virus film. Considering the budget, the movie has only a few zombie n gun shot violence scenes but brutal. There is tension and a sense of dread throughout. The actors acted well n the best part is the music.

Solid, low-budget Canadian movie set in the closing days of WWI. The Germans have a mysterious, abandoned tunnel complex in the Ardennes forest. British military intelligence wants to know what's in it. But the Americans control the Ardennes and the British lack an experienced 'tunneler.'

Ah, but a Canadian tunneler from Winnipeg is available nearby in France! So, backed by four US infantry, the two British MI officers and the tunneler head off for what will surely will be an easy, carefree mission! Well, no.

The writing is solid throughout, and the direction manages some nice, tense moments of claustrophobic horror. Rossif Sutherland has a nice, offbeat charm as our heroic tunneler. It's a Canadian movie, so don't be surprised if the tunneler comes across better than his British and American counterparts!

The movie is as much or more about the horrors human beings are capable of, so be aware that this isn't THE THING IN A TRENCH. There are non-natural horror elements and scenes of graphic violence, but they work within a broader view of the horrors of humanity and its wars.

I've watched some truly awful horror movies with the same IMD rating as this one. I'm baffled by the IMD rating for this film. Obviously it's not going to be a blockbuster high budget movie, but ? ... The atmosphere was great, story was simple but good, characters believable and well acted (surprisingly so), loved the setting of WWI, well paced, good tension, nice set and period details. Felt wonderfully claustrophobic at times, some nice scares, a love-to-hate him bad guy. Not a cliched 'evil Germans' movie. Just, well, an enjoyable movie. I actually cared about the characters and how the story turned out, which is often not the case with many horror/sci fi movies for me - and it felt oddly fresh for a somewhat generic sounding horror movie... maybe because it felt honest, and no jump scares or annoying characters, and those sort of cliches.

I enjoyed watching this movie. I thought the acting was good, and the cinematography and direction. It kept my interest until the end. However I think the topic is a tired old one with this movie just being one more variation on an age-old plot. Would definitely rent and watch this one for around a dollar or watch it on Netflix or cable
