⭐️⭐️1/2
A group of students head into a Cold War era bunker for a research project with their professor coordinating the experience. The film opens with the off-camera eating of a baby cut out of the mother’s belly… so you know things will not end well for the gaggle of gals. There’s no cellphones and nobody was told where they were going so these idiots pretty much fucked themselves by undertaking a weekend trip locked in a bunker for their thesis. Listen. I’m not saying anyone deserves the horrific tortures that befall these poor ladies, but there’s a point where your inability to survive just becomes annoying and the shits I give about you vanish. If the location and secrecy weren’t sending off an explosive chorus of warning bells then the creepy-ass guide that leads them into the bunker should have been the final straw but it’s not and these idiots intrude on the stomping grounds of a murder-happy cannibal. Horrible dialogue and a bunch of graphic death will have any spaghetti nightmare enthusiast smiling because as dumb as it all may be, if you grew up with the splatter from The Boot, you’ll be right at home. The graphic violence is mostly practical effects work and the setting is pretty cool but the boogeyman is pretty lame. Just looks like some dude who used to live in the woods with the Wrong Turn clan but now beats his wife in their New Jersey apartment. Pretty much doomed from the start anyways when you’re standing in the shadow of George Eastman. Still, low expectations should lead to a good time. “I had to team up with the shit-head stoner!”
