Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!

Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

WhoThrewThatMonkey "4 British students get locked in a bunker during their holiday and only one girl was able to make it out alive. It is up to a psychologist to find out exactly what happened leading up to and during their time in that hole."It is really hard to become invested in a movie where the main character is a repulsive, unlikeable megalomaniac.Liz (who is played by Thora Birch of American Beauty) stumbles out of an underground bunker, through the woods and contact the police (where her first unlikeable act is witnessed as she screams into the phone). She is one of four students who went missing during a time where the students were expected to go off on vacation. During character introduction, we come to find out that Mike is her love interest who is an American jock. Geoff is Mike's best friend and Frankie is a bulimic popular girl who comes along for...what ever reason and has no relationship with Liz in what so ever way.It's not exactly specified why instead of going on a proper vacation, they decide to go into an underground bunker. The story that Liz tells the psychologist is that her friend Martin who is very deceitful and can get want he wants, is in love with her but she wants to be with Mike. Martin agrees to help her by getting the four locked into the bunker. After 3 days, Martin is supposed to come back to open it up for them but when he doesn't arrive, they become worried. Fast forward through some nonsense, Liz suspects that Martin is listening in and develops the plot to have the others work along with her acting like they hate her. The reason? She believes that Martin hasn't let them out because she likes Mike instead of him. You know High School nonsense. After the group yell nasty things at each other, the vault door opens and they leave.Martin is brought in for questioning but reveals that he has no clue what they're talking about. Liz and Frankie are friends and her had nothing to do with them going missing as he was out of the country.Upon further one on one unrecorded conversation though, the psychologist gets the real story. Liz reveals that what really happened is Frankie got Geoff to talk Mike into going along with them when Mike really wanted to make up with his girlfriend and that Liz is the one who locked them in the bunker. Her plan was to get Mike to fall in love with her but what she thought would take three days ended up taking almost 3 weeks. Instead of calling off her plan and just unlocking the door, she holds the group hostage but they are completely unaware that she is doing so. The group went through some real issues including not having proper drinking water, not having enough food. Frankie dies due to her bulimic habits catching up with her. Mike kills Geoff out of a fit of anger realizing he has been hiding food and drink. When Liz decides to open the vault after sleeping with Mike, he gets upset and climbs a shifty ladder to get out only for it to collapse and impale him. The movie ends with Liz getting away with it all.That's the reason why I dislike this movie so much is because of the character Liz. She is manipulating, wants to be the center of attention and does things just to get her way. From the very beginning even when she tried to put herself as an innocent participant, I disliked this character. If at the end, she got arrested or better yet, killed, I think I would have liked this movie. But her getting away, just leaves a sour taste in my mouth.A big plot hole and another reason why I started loathing this movie from the very beginning was you see blood and police caution tape at the start of the movie, yet in Liz's first story, she says the four all got out alive when the hatch opened. Now, I guess it could be misinterpreted as the stress caused her to not remember exactly what happened but her saying that they all got out when clearly she was the only one, should have been cause for concern. If she wasn't the prime suspect for falsifying her story, she should have definitely not been allowed to go home due to three people being dead and she was saying that everything was fine.The one surprising thing is you see Keira Knightly breast in this film. Now, you may be thinking "Oh, cool! I always wanted to see them!" but this movie came out in 2001. Keira Knightly would have been around 15 at that time.Overall, good acting by Knightly, Laurence Fox and Desmond Harrington who all played their roles very well and were likable in some scenes but Thora Birch or at least the character of Liz ruined the movie for me. Some parts were good but overall, the story isn't solid and just seems like it was made to create a twist that everyone should have seen coming from a mile away. I am going to say avoid this movie.

TxMike I managed to find this movie on Netflix streaming movies. The initial premise is simple, two guys and two girls skip out on a end- of-term field trip to spend 3 days "camping" in an old emergency shelter, underground with a metal door that opens up on a hillside in the woods. Basically a place few would know about and not likely stumble upon.But something goes very wrong. As the movie progresses initially and one of the girls makes her way to safety, and is explaining to a psychiatrist what happened, we see that dramatized. But is that what really happened, or do we have a case of 'unreliable narrator'? While this isn't a great movie is did hold my interest, I had no idea what would develop. I also like the actors, especially the two female leads, Thora Birch as Liz Dunn and Keira Knightley as 'Frankie'. In fact this is the role where at 15 during filming she flashed her breasts for a second, an act which has created at least a bit of controversy on the discussion board. But it was quick and innocent.SPOILERS: The first story we see, which is not accurate, has the four being locked by another boy in the secluded shelter then failing to show up 3 days later as agreed. But in fact he was a scapegoat, it was all a plan of Liz's to get a cute boy to like her, and when things went wrong each of the others died one at a time. All for the silliness of trying to get attention. To cover her tracks she put the shelter key in the other boy's pocket, pushed him into a stream, he was found dead with the key. They assumed suicide from guilt. Liz, the teenage psychopath, got off.

Bentleybowtie This was a well thought out and well executed movie. At first blush, the concept of 4 bratty teens stuck in a bunker seems awful, but the reality is quite the opposite!Said 4 snotty - er, bratty - teens are keen to avoid a school trip (how droll!), and end up seeking shelter from monotony in an old bunker. It is once they are unable to get out that things get interesting, straining, and much less enjoyable than a schoolyard trip!Good acting and camera work stops it from being tedious - the relationships and character development make it a thrilling movie. It is a great movie that is definitely worth your time, and I'd highly recommend.

Robert J. Maxwell Rather unpleasant but gripping story of four teen-aged school kids trapped in an old underground bunker in the kind of "densely wooded area" where all dead bodies are found.The kids have been trying to escape a field trip to Wales and entered the bunker with plenty of booze, planning a three-day debauch. Parties, however, can't last forever, as I've had opportunities to discover, and after the first night they're hung over and, to add to their misery, the iron door at the top of the bunker slams shut and is locked.Three days later, Thora Birch, the lone survivor, stumbles into the arms of the authorities, in shock, her clothing ripped. The three bodies are removed from the vault and Birch tells her sad tale to the shrink, Embeth Davidtz. The story of what happened emerges in several flashbacks as Birch gradually loosens up. I guess I won't reveal the details, due to legal confidentiality.The movie depends largely on Thora Birch and she's quite good as the sullen but conniving school outcast, cum murderess. She plain, but not too plain -- just plain enough to pass for an outcast, and her grooming is semi-Goth. The two horny boys are dispensable. Kiera Knightley is a stunning and flirtatious fox who oozes oestrus. Next to her, anybody would look plain. Both boys throw themselves on her and almost get his jeans off but not quite, worse luck. Too bad, what happens to her.Neither of the young girls is quite as attractive -- not JUST sexy -- as Embeth Davidtz, the earnest and puzzled shrink who is trying to make sense out of this jigsaw puzzle tale. Her Brit accent sounds flawless to my alien ears. Davidtz was born in Indiana but was moved at an early age to South Africa and I suppose that helped. By the end, the cunning Birch has turned suspicion towards Davidtz.If there's a problem with the movie it's that the milieu -- that awful and decrepit underground bunker -- is so dismal. What a depressing place to spend a three-day holiday. And the decor is a catastrophe. The toilets don't work and one of them winds up filled with maggots.I watched it with curiosity and some interest but I wouldn't go through it again.
