    • Trivia
      This was the first ever production that secured permission from the French government to film in the catacombs. The film utilizes a set of narrow, winding tunnels of the Paris catacombs, complete with real mint skeletons creepily arranged centuries ago.
    • Goofs
      The poem on Flamel's stone shouldn't rhyme in English.
    • Quotes

      Scarlett: As above, so below. As I believe the world to be, so it is.

    • Crazy credits
      On the last seconds of the end credits, you can hear a character saying "The only way out is down", followed by some of the noises heard on the catacombs earlier in the film.

    This movie does an outstanding job at doing what others have done time and time again, yet does it in a way that captivates you. It will either have you on the edge of your seat, or off to take a bathroom brake without pausing.

    The opening scene of this movie is full of good intent but left me feeling confused. And not in the good way, but more in the way that makes you think that this movie is going to be just as bad as you expected.

    The rest of the first half of this movie is extremely basic setup. It does absolutely nothing to innovate, captivate, or even make you care about who, what, when, why, where or how. Meet the characters, make them seem young and hip, and as always, convey that they are way out of their league.

    All of this made me want to turn off my TV and call it a day. But i decided to stay and it was well worth my patience.

    As soon as the characters enter the tombs, the movie picks right up. Making me feel like i'm stuck down there with them and all of their fears being exploited left me as a paranoid wreck through the rest of the film.

    The movie isn't that scary, but more intense than anything.

    The ending was well thought out and not cliché. It also left me wanting more movies that are written with this much thought.
