    It Wasn't THAT Bad...

    This movie should have been 45 minutes long. Much of the movie was "atmosphere," meaning way too many dark/black screens with limited dialogue. The twists and turns were unpredictable, but it took way too long to get there; The low budget of the movie is definitely seen in the limited amount of diversity in the settings. Don't get your hopes up and expect to be on your phone a bunch waiting for the important scenes to happen and you'll have a decent time.

    Much better than I expected...

    Just finished watching this and I have to admit, I quite enjoyed it.

    It's not scary in the slightest, it's also not brilliantly acted, the script is pretty simple and you guess their predicament about 20 minutes into the movie but it looks pretty and the storyline isn't just a rehash of typical horror movies.

    The characters are actually quite well portrayed, and also fairly likeable too except the baddie in it but you'd expect nothing else and his reaction at the end of the movie was pretty satisfying.

    It reminded me a lot of Dyatlov Pass (which is a found footage movie, this one isn't) which I also enjoyed.

    I've given this 7 stars, it's actually about 6.5 but thought I'd be generous rather than mark it down.

    .....

    To each their own I guess... I lost interest pretty quick even tho I stuck it out to the end. It had so much potential but needed better actors and more of a budget.

    Predictable

    Seen this basic plot many times before. There is a slight twist and the setting is decent which is why it gets a 5 rating. Other than that, yawn.

    Great script and story but limited execution

    Lance Henriksen is a fun addition but is really only credited to bring audience to the film.

    The story of Gehenna: Where Death Lives is really interesting and makes the movie watchable, unfortunately some of the directorial work such as good acting and scene editing makes it a pretty sloppy movie.

      During the attempt to exit the bunker, they pull on the door, which won't open. Quite clearly, the latch is engaged and no one attempts to unlock it.
