Trapped at a deserted station these six adults become the target of a gruesome manhunt when a secret gang of cannibal dwellers, living in the tunnels discovers them. Tensions will rise as they fight to make it through the night with all their limbs attached. |

Odd. IMDB and other sites say it was made in 2008 but the back of the DVD says 2011 lol. |

This film was awesome. I really liked the acting and the actors had great chemistry. It was a bit dark and bloody when it needed to be but it wasn't sugarcoated. |

Agreed with everything you said Derek! It was nice seeing Vinessa Shaw again though I barely recognized her at first. As a whole, the cast was pretty decent. The death order, however, was NOT. Two of the most entertaining characters died first, and they let the most ignorant, annoying, sexist of the trio make it to the last twenty minutes. Total bullshit, even if that person redeemed himself to a certain extent.When it came to the setting, it couldn't have been used better. Tunnels, bathrooms, gates, stairs, rails, trains, streets, and more. It was appropriately dark and ugly and it was a bit of a visual treat as were the kills...woah....the kills. They SO didn't hold back at all when it came to the violence and all but one or two of the kills were as nasty as can be, timed perfectly, and a couple of them even had a potent emotional sting to them! Bravo in that department! With a couple more female characters (there were only two women, sadly) and a different ending (this ending pissed me off the same way that The Descent Part 2's ending pissed me off, though this wasn't THAT bad, thankfully), it'd be a 9/10 for sure. As it is, I give it; 7.5/10 quality, 8/10 entertainment. |

On the whole this was a total disappointment since it has a lot going for it. One of the best parts here is the fact that the film crams a lot of action into here which really makes this one a lot of fun, with a creepy location and a realistic scenario coming into play for a lot of times here. The early set-up for getting stuck here in the tunnel is quite plausible but gets this settled on the action early on as they race through the darkened tunnel with the howling, yelling group right on their heels, the encounter with the others at the abandoned station is insanely suspenseful utilized the darkness and the decrepit set-up quite well while also managing to get some good gore gags in here while setting up the later attacks nicely, and the series of extended, extra- long foot-chases through the remaining tunnels here makes for a fun time. As well, the several confrontations in their lair are great fun here with the howling dogs, the demented behavior of the cannibals as well as bringing in some really suspenseful scenes as they try to remain undetected to escape while the second one there is a frantic, brutal series of brawls that get the frenzied action quite well. This one also manages to really work nicely here in the darkened tunnels and the different cannibals which are quite creepy-looking and imposing, creating an all-around chilling looking when combined with the rather nice blood-letting here makes up this one's positives which is a shame since this one really should've been a lot of fun but instead is a huge missed opportunity. This one is really damaged by the film's incessant and unyielding love affair with a shaking camera that goes on during each of the big action sequences, rendering them to a mostly incomprehensible blur and making it impossible to tell what's going on. Since it's so dark in the area to begin with, this makes its biggest scenes a rather indistinguishable mess that cuts off the selling point of the film and the moment you want it to happen the most and really hurting this one overall. Combined with its rather offbeat pace where it tends to drag when it's dealing with a totally uninteresting cast yet race by when dealing with the confrontations as well as far too much fake sentiment that doesn't do anything, these flaws are enough to hold it down when it didn't need them. |

Do illiterate people get the full effect of alphabet soup? Some people are like slinkies: not good for anything, but you can't help but laugh when one falls down the stairs. My review blog: http://donshorrormovieblog.blogspot.com/ | |

The setting is awesome, but that's it. Absolutely terrible. And I really couldn't stand Vinessa Shaw's character. Then the main guy was an idiot Spoiler: click to toggle

I thought it was a great slasher, great villains and plenty of suspense within the setting and filled with fine kills. That's a great combination for an entertaining film. |
