Plot Synopsis
Storyline
One misty morning, Liz Dunn stumbles down the road to her school and screams for help. A police psychologist gets her to reveal her story: A month earlier: three rebellious teenagers - Mike, Frankie and Geoff are trying to ditch the school field trip to Wales. The school nerd Martin helps them out by allowing them to stay in an old war bunker for the three days on the condition that his friend Liz joins them. The teens go down, party and have great fun but Martin doesn't return to let them out and they hope and pray that someone will find them... Written by RJDL

Okay, so it's a little insulting to have the director and screenwriter believe I'm so stupid that I won't notice how lame their plot is. The students hide out in an abandoned war-era bunker, right? It just "happens" to have electricity and running water. Right. And that's just the first of many howlers in a plot that's as inconsistent as Thora Birch's upper-class Brit accent. [Not that I'm knocking her talent, but a few more days with the accent coach would have improved her chances of passing off as an English schoolgirl.] Next time hire a script editor -- someone who can tell you "Hey, you know, if you go to all the trouble of having the bad girl successfully pin the crime on the school geek, it doesn't really make sense for her to make a full confession immediately after." As for the hole, it's what this movie needs: six down and three across, with the earth firmly stamped down on top of it.
