Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for anyone who likes to solve it before the characters do and anyone who loves trying to stay one step ahead. The investigation drives everything, one lead at a time. Sits nicely alongside Possession. Audiences love it more than critics do: a crowd-pleaser first.
The mood
Scary.
The pace
Keeps the tension tight, at 1 hr 34 min.
What might put you off
Skip it if you scare easily or watch alone at night.

Anxious to explore the mysterious hidden world under metropolitan Berlin, an international group of four urban explorers hires a local guide, Kris, who leads them into the maze of escape tunnels and subterranean fortifications under the city. When their guide has a bad fall, two of the girls in the group frantically set off to seek help while Denis, the young American, stays behind. Armin, a former East German border guard suddenly appears from nowhere. Out of sheer desperation, Denis allows Armin to lead them and their unconscious guide to safety and it is at this moment that Denis realizes he has just made the biggest mistake of his life!
