Anthony Waller applies his coruscating wit and insight to a horrific story involving a drilling project that breaks through to the very chambers of Hell itself. This is a quite powerful film, well written, intelligent, and deeply disturbing. Based upon a fake urban legend that purported to announce that a Siberian mission to drill nine miles down had discovered Hell and the cries of the suffering souls could be heard over microphones lowered into the earth, the motion picture expands and enhances that scenario. The imagery is haunting and the location shooting creates an environment of overwhelming dread and stunning intensity. As a film, it breaks through the conventions of the horror genre and provides gripping evidence that the existence of evil, if not Hell, is all too real.

This was a pretty tedious flick. It peaked my interest because I'm a fan of the "ghost ship" type horror. Event Horizon, The Thing, Aliens, etc. Movies where the people are trapped in a desolate location with the bad guys.It was indeed this kind of flick, but not in the same league as the ones mentioned above.The acting wasn't bad, but not great either.It's one of those non-conclusive type movies. Some movies do the "leave the ending up to viewers interpretation" trick well, this one does it OK. You could do worse, but you could do better. :) 4/10.

Wow what a piece of garbage. I guess this was suppose to be a scary psychological type thriller. It missed by a mile. The female lead is a good looking, computer altered at times character. She is obviously a desert spirit of a past time, that is of course evil. The site where all the action takes place is a science site looking for I am not sure what. Every one is dead except for the spirit when the investigator shows up to guess what(?) investigate of all things. There are all kinds of dream sequences and nightmares that the investigator goes through but in the end who cares? This movie was as poorly done as any SyFy original movie that I have seen.

This film could have had potential however the story lacked any depth and scenes were very diluted with long, unnecessary, and repetitive craziness. I use the term craziness since I cannot find a better way to describe such strange and pointless parts in this film. It's as if the director himself was trying to recreate some twisted concept that popped into his mind however when put into action this did not materialize. The film started well while unfortunately and continually progressing very predictably and lacked any positive progression. I might add the female character was rather intriguing; the second unfortunate part was they showed more ass of the guy then anything else which leads me to believe the director must be a homosexual. At times I thought the film may redeem itself when again and again it kept letting me down and just continued to get worse until I got to the point when I couldn't wait for it to just end since I already wasted so much of my time trying to get into it. Possibly worth a watch if you really have nothing else to watch. Don't expect anything great other then a 5 second creative skeleton demon scene and a sexy blonde in nothing but a chefs apron; I know for many of you me simply stating this will lead you to view this piece as soon as possible.
