It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

Is anyone actually concerned with what goes into the mind in this day and age? How can watching this nightmare benefit the watcher? Indeed, films like this ebb away at a person's ability for disgust, gore and madness, some say this is the point. I love horror movies, but less is more, something few director's today realise. Just because you have better effects and cgi doesn't mean you have to destroy the fright factor (as well as the viewers minds) but showing each gore filled act. I only managed the first part of this movie before shutting it off, and it was very well done.

Visually this movie excels, the practical effects and makeup are memorable and definitely keep the movie interesting. The film is only around 90 minutes, but the pacing and build up to certain events is quite slow, so it seems to drag on. The characters are not too interesting, but they do have personality, though most of them are basic. There is a complexity built into the films story, not a lot is explained, and its really open to interpretation. This feels like if Mulholland Drive was crossed with a Rob Zombie movie, there is even a scene in a diner where a character tells another character about a terrifying dream he had, this definitely reminded me of Mulholland Drive. I wouldn't say it is a great movie, but it definitely has great individual scenes, the opening scene in particular was phenomenal, and throughout there's a hellish, surreal atmosphere. The soundtrack is great and really helps amplify the more intense scenes. It also features an electronic soundtrack, and being a fan of that sort of music, I enjoyed it. Again, its not a great movie, but its definitely an enjoyable horror flick that I would recommend and probably watch again.

This is yet another of those films where the premise is solid, though, in reality, the movie turns out to be a letdown. A group of policemen are called out to help with a unit at an old abandoned building. Once they get there, they find the two policemen dead. As they search through the hallways and floor of the building they come across a staircase that leads downwards. It goes a lot further than just to a basement... it leads into the bowels of the earth. Here they find a group of Satanists performing a Black Mass.This could have been a great film... should have been... The Director and one of the writers, Can Evrenol gives the audience some beautiful camera shots and builds an eerie atmosphere which is almost palpable. He also gives them some really nasty and disturbing imagery, which should stay with them for quite some time.Though this isn't enough to keep the film strong... and neither is the exemplary acting.The fault with the film is the characters and the story. The main characters are bullish and unlikable. They take pleasure in torturing and degrading the people around them. They think of themselves as great and untouchable. Because I couldn't relate to any of the characters it made the film slow and boring.There is a pomposity to the story which grated on my nerves. When it got towards the climax and the philosophical issues started to come through they felt forced, half-formed and unconvincing. These should have been woven throughout the story. They may even have made me care about the characters and what happens to them.However, when the film ended I was left cold, bored and wondering what the point of the film actually was.Not a film I would recommend to anyone.

Cops respond to a distress call from another unit. When they arrive at the abandoned police station the call came from everything goes weird and gory.Visually arresting and well scored this movie does make an impression but doesn't make much sense. By making the cops out to be quite scummy at the beginning of the story it made it so I wasn't really rooting for them. The locale is good with the abandoned police station having a very eerie feeling. The constant dream sequences while at first impressive become a bit tiresome when you realise the movie is lacking in narrative drive when most of what you see turns out to not really have happened.For me it felt reminiscent of Some Italian splatter like Fulci where plot played second fiddle to imagery and mood. I am in no way saying it is in league with Fulci but it has a similar feel to the likes of The Beyond and City of the living dead.The master stroke of Baskin comes in the casting of The Father character which to me was akin to seeing Michael Berryman for the first time in the Hills have eyes. This actor has such a striking appearance it just adds to the feel of the movie. The plot really is the weak link in the whole production with the ending being one of those you've seen a thousand times in horror movies. Very tiresome to see it end in such a contrived and over used way. Overall I think I could probably watch this movie again but it isn't one I would heartily recommend.
