This movie could have been good...but it just...wasn't. It wasn't horrid, but I really hate to see wasted potential.Apparently, this movie had a budget...which makes the fact that this film left so much to be desired, even more of a serious disappointment. I almost stopped watching after the obligatory and useless boob shot. When are film makers going to grow up?Not just men watch horror...and the shot did nothing to help the movie.There are thousands of Indie filmmakers (myself included) that would give anything to have a budget like the one this film had...and to see it wasted on boring acting, sometimes stupid plot and lackluster presentation, is a shame.Some parts were okay...some were dumb. Worth a watch...just don't expect much.

Seeing this film was a mixed bag. The story is very simple, yet that's not necessary a bad thing for a movie like this. However a little more character background for the individual girls would have made the movie a lot more suspenseful (you'll actually hope they survive for another reason rather than hoping for a boob flash).The acting is terrible. Especially when they have to do something else than just scream and look scared.The nudity is there (and nice looking girl too) but it only helps to make the movie look even more low budget.There's a lot of atmosphere in the movie, once they go into the crypt. However everything above is just lame. From the opening car theft to the planing room.The ghosts look scary (with their all white) eyes, but they don't exactly look like they've been buried for 70 years. Considering the budget, they are definitely one of the highlights of the film.Another highlight are the somewhat sudden scares, like ghost appearing for just a second before it fades into the dark.I think both the movie and director have potential to do wonders with a larger moneybag (like $5 millions or something).Cut out the stupid stuff like the opening car theft and the ending (the last 10 minutes or so). Get some better actors, and don't use an all female cast. It's not very believable. Add more character development for the supporting leads. Remove the unnecessary nudity. Improve the ghost make-up, and remove the flickering (so unoriginal). Add more environmental dangers like crushing concrete, holes/traps and stuff.Last but not least (and I'm not sure about this), add to the story a reason/hint why the crypt may be haunted. Something like a necromancer was buried there. This could even be the secret agenda of one of the grave robbers.

It doesn't get much worse than this turd. The acting is worse than something I'd expect to see in an elementary school play. The script is about as deep, engaging, and sensible as the lyrics to a typical R.E.M. song.I'm not kidding when I say that this film is better suited as a comedy than as a thriller or horror flick. You'll laugh when someone in the cast witnesses a gnarled ghost/zombie, and acts as if it's nothing more than a chihuahua. Or how they respond to seeing someone killed right before their eyes as if the person had received nothing more than a papercut. It may be the most astonishingly-bad acting and directing I've ever seen.This movie really is not worth even what I've written so far.

A girl and her ex-con boyfriend are convinced to join a group of thieves planning to break into a sealed Depression-era crypt and loot the bodies of their jewelry. However the crypt just might be haunted...There's nothing spectacular about this low-budget horror film, but it somehow ends up being a lot more entertaining than it has any right to be. The plot is incredibly light for its hour and twenty minute running time, so there are an excessive amount of "girls crawling through crypt corridor" scenes. The director doesn't skip ahead, even when the thieves are backtracking through areas we've already seen, and those sequences can get dull. (Short on plot though it is, I did notice at least one plot hole.) If you like cleavage, however, plenty is on display. A bit more cleavage than gore, perhaps unfortunately.The acting isn't as bad as a previous comment would have you believe. Sarah Oh (PJ) and Abra May (Gina) are the standouts and luckily it's them who get the most screen time. Once the girls get into the crypt and start looking scared, there are no line deliveries bad enough to make you roll your eyes.The sets are pretty incredible, if obviously too new to be built during the Great Depression, and unlike most low budget films they are actually lit very well. In fact sometimes the crypt corridors are a bit too bright - I think a little bit of darkness might have made for a scarier mood.You've seen the flickering ghosts here in a billion other movies, so don't expect to have any nightmares after watching The Crypt, unless perhaps you're claustrophobic.And yes, there is a brief topless shot of the beautiful Sarah Oh, which for some might make this rental worth catching all by itself.
