Trivia
"Hauser hall" is a reference to "Kaspar Hauser"- An enigmatic child who turned up in a German town in the 16th century, who's origin is considered a great mystery, akin to the Bermuda triangle, the Mary Celeste, or Count St Germaine (and who's been the subject of several movies, over the years, the most well-known being 1974's 'L'énigme de Kaspar Hauser (1974) film by Werner Herzog); Very fitting for a film about the equally-mysterious 'Dyatlov Pass'.

Goofs
Although Holly's camera went back in time with her, there was another one containing exactly the same footage inside the hatch. This is the same camera, retrieved by soldiers during the Dyatlov Pass incident in 1959 and brought inside.

Crazy credits
Several names and words in the final credits start out with some or all of the letters being spelled with Cyrillic script (used in the Russian language). They gradually morph into English.

not as bad as you would think

one thing i can say with certainty is i had no expectations ( no high ones at least), and i was expecting something quite mediocre when i saw renny harlin's name attached as director. certainly his career has been on a downward trajectory of late. but, i have to confess, i found this kind of compelling. there are certainly some interesting ideas even if they don't resolve satisfactorily some of the time . it definitely goes some strange places i wasn't expecting. the mountain scenes are really atmospheric, the actors do well with the material they have. and what starts as a 'found- footage movie' gives way to a sci-fi/horror hybrid. i watched it on a rainy night and didn't feel i'd wasted my time - it got me interested in looking into the real-life mystery so it had some positive effect. i recommend it. it's uneven and sometimes fails to hit the target but this is certainly atmospheric and creepy and shows that the die hard 2 director still has some shots in the sling... i'm going to give it 6 for effort at least : )
