The Underneath

The Underneath, in general, storyline was interesting, different, but somehow almost identical in certain aspects. Actor's both played strong and believable, although i kept thinking i was watchin some prequel of the British Horror Movie 'The Descent'2005. called something like: The Descent: The Beginning- 'When Honeymoons Go Bad!! 2014

As above when i mentioned the Actor's it was not their fault that the script they were given, spoiled their chance to show their true potential. It lacked atmosphere and characters showed watch should have been, the viewers reaction immersed into the fear, terror, and suspense,the movie had captured..And instead turning into a film where, you have a lot of sudden moments throughout this movie and end up in moments where your, scratching your head thinking " Eh? That last shot, showed the couple the first good look and a full frontal lit up vision 3 feet from their nose .. what the unknown creature looked like, Yes they looked a little shocked and ran into small tunnel, to safety .. to which , for me , Id be saying "What... The..... HELL!! Was That!!????? .. but neither showed what should have been overwhelming reaction of terror that a human, who just experienced an up close and personal look into the face of what in one scene earlier in the film wife looking at her husband with a look of a disturbing ominous 6th sense and realising something was very wrong down in this cavern and almost in a whisper say to him "SOMETHING IS DOWN HERE , WE ARE NOT ALONE!! " The effects throughout this movie,created a good quality, and a truly believable environment, creature creations able to scare the average person. I rated a 5 because the only thing that had dampened the feel of the movie was the lack of passion and actual human behaviour of typical psychological reactions, if anyone had been placed and plunged into an environment to what us viewers saw for ourselves .. if I had been a victim of those circumstances i don't think i would effectively be in full logical state of mind, and showing my layed back approach ..of " Oh not again, yawn" mental state... excellent movie with lack of emotion and psychological atmosphere created from actors performance. So blame the script writer.. ..

This movie is a total waste of time .. all of it is pure darkness .. i felt like am listening to the movie not watching... story line is so weak and i strongly recommend you not to watch it at all .

the movie is so boring , maybe the story would be better if they added another 30 minutes of darkness ...

i hope they never try to produce another movie or any kind of videos .

but , the actors did well .. the sound effects is good .

Another thing , since the whole movie is only 70 minutes long , why did they waste 15 minutes in the beginning on romantic stuff between the two of them ? and the end is awful .. what happened to the girl ? dead or alive ? she killed 4 creatures .. could the last one kill her ??

Any way in the end , its the worst movie i have ever seen in my life and i wasted 70 minutes on it

"The Underneath" turned out to be a lot creepier than expected. What I thought was going to be a lame low budget horror flick turned out to be creepy as hell, giving me chills to see the creatures underground. This left images in my head that will come to mind the next time I am rock climbing or in the woods. I would not recommend watching this alone or before bed - you will not sleep! Actress Natalie Wilemon gave an excellent performance in this horror flick. She brought Jessie's character to life and adequately expressed the distress and desperation she was going through. Keep an eye out for this girl because she will be something big!

Okay, so there are actors who can act and there are those whom you can SEE that they're really trying to act. This is one such case. The leading man, Holt, is one of the stiffest, woodenest (neologism), over acting, under actors I have ever seen. He might be used to stage acting where one must exaggerate the part so those in the back rows can see and hear, but in movies, one shouldn't do that. He apparently didn't get the memo. It ruined the flick for me, it could have been a good flick, but he shouldn't have been cast anywhere near this film. The leading girl was good. If you watch this film, try to fast forward through his lines and predictably the film will not lose an ounce of entertainment value, and will gain in the absence.

A cheaper version of The Descent, which actually still turned out quite decent. The acting was mediocre however, but the setting and graphics weren't half bad. Give it a try!
