This film was a bit of a revelation, and certainly one of the better horror films I've seen in years. Yes, it's a found footage film, but it doesn't feel cheap or contrived in any way. In fact the camera work is incredibly effective in building suspense and there is a real sense of claustrophobia throughout the film. It's very similar to 'The Tunnel', so if you enjoyed that you'll like this, in fact this film is much better in my opinion.

Plot wise it's decent enough for a horror, but does go a bit 'National Treasure' at some points, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who kept thinking about Harry Potter when they kept talking about the Philosophers Stone. The scares build throughout the film and it's more creepy suspense rather than leap out of your seat moments, although there are one or two jumps thrown in there. The location itself works great in the film, and this could almost work as a 'potholing gone bad' film and still be a very tense watch. In terms of characters it's pretty good all round. The lead actress is fairly annoying but apart from that everyone else did a decent job.

Overall, definitely worth a watch, even for a non-horror an like me!

I created my IMDb account with the sole intention of reviewing this film. It is without doubt the worst film I've ever seen. Everything from the script, to the acting, production values, sound effects, camera work, literally everything, reminds me of something a high school student would turn in as a homework project. It is really low quality, cringe worthy, amateur stuff. If I could give it zero stars I would. Some of the acting is laughable, to the point where almost feels like a comedy parody of a horror film. There is a point where it feels like it could turn into a bit of a Paranormal Activity rip-off, but it never happens.The best thing about this film is that it is only about an hour and ten minutes long, so it's over relatively quickly.
