The Crypt

this is the lowest rating anyone can give to the movie. believe me we may have seen far better scary, sexy and sensible low budget movies than this. well here is the plot (if you like to call it so) bunch of crooked amateurs crawl into a crypt which is haunted!!! by the spirits!!!!! every one gets killed as expected. rest is with held for my own reason. here is a glimpse of some sensible scenes from the movie.

trapped inside the 80 years old crypt hero finds a manhole with handle, the gutter is powered by flashy lights, two inter connected rooms in the same level - one is filled with sky high water and the other has water just above your neck, there are doors locked with the keys kept upon it... the ghosts looks scared not the actors, quite possibly due their so called acting??? casting is awfully horribly. see this movie at your own risk. as the movie tagline rightly says Some things are better left buried... its quite true for this movie.

Seeing this film was a mixed bag. The story is very simple, yet that's not necessary a bad thing for a movie like this. However a little more character background for the individual girls would have made the movie a lot more suspenseful (you'll actually hope they survive for another reason rather than hoping for a boob flash).

The acting is terrible. Especially when they have to do something else than just scream and look scared.

The nudity is there (and nice looking girl too) but it only helps to make the movie look even more low budget.

There's a lot of atmosphere in the movie, once they go into the crypt. However everything above is just lame. From the opening car theft to the planing room.

The ghosts look scary (with their all white) eyes, but they don't exactly look like they've been buried for 70 years. Considering the budget, they are definitely one of the highlights of the film.

Another highlight are the somewhat sudden scares, like ghost appearing for just a second before it fades into the dark.

I think both the movie and director have potential to do wonders with a larger moneybag (like $5 millions or something).

Cut out the stupid stuff like the opening car theft and the ending (the last 10 minutes or so). Get some better actors, and don't use an all female cast. It's not very believable. Add more character development for the supporting leads. Remove the unnecessary nudity. Improve the ghost make-up, and remove the flickering (so unoriginal). Add more environmental dangers like crushing concrete, holes/traps and stuff.

Last but not least (and I'm not sure about this), add to the story a reason/hint why the crypt may be haunted. Something like a necromancer was buried there. This could even be the secret agenda of one of the grave robbers.

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.

Sometimes you just got to stop up, take a breath and actually pay heed to the reviews about a movie and actually look at the ratings given to a movie on IMDb. Now, of course, that can't be generalized for every single movie, because likes and dislikes is a matter of individual preference. But for this particular movie, I wish I had actually taken notice of those.

The story is about a group of young people that venture into some crypt found beneath the city (that no one for some odd reason never went into or found) in search of the valuables stored here. As they lay their hands on the untold riches, it becomes clear that they are not alone in the crypts, and that the ancient dead will claim what is rightfully theirs at the cost of the living.

Initially, then the story did have some potential, but it was all wasted by horrendous direction and a lack of commitment from the actors and actresses. And given the dire peril that the people were in, they were all awfully calm, level-headed and most often little worried about their lives being at risk. No, it just all didn't come together for a greater unity, and as such, the movie was a disaster.

If there was anything holding the movie afloat, then it had to be the performance of Sandra Oh, although she could do very little to prevent this train wreck to slide downhill.

The death scenes were laughable and came off the screen as anything but scary or disturbing.

"The Crypt" is not worth sitting through for a whole hour and twenty-something odd minutes. The movie just trotted along in a very dull and monotone pace, never really picking up pace at any point. And to put the icing on the cake, then the ending was just a final slap in the face to anyone who actually managed to suffer through the entire movie (as I had the misfortune to do).

"The Crypt" should be left as crypts should be, sealed and left alone.

I really feel sorry that i have watched this "movie". I do not remember if i saw something so terrible ever before. Those kids know f..k about acting and whole storyline is missing. The only positive thing about this film is that you can see Asian girl tits for a little while. When her boyfriend is released from prison it makes you wonder, do they have such good barbers in jail ???? And what happened to that girl which has been shot in car, or why are they all dressed like analogy of Lara Croft from Tomb Raider when they are going in to the crypt ? Another thing "Ghosts". Jeez they are so damn lazy, doing nothing only standing around and pawing females like a bunch of German tourist on trip in Czech. This is the most worse parody of movie i have ever seen so far and it is gonna be very hard to beat this feeling with another movie. DO NOT WATCH THIS if you want to stay sane.
