As Above, So Below Reviews

It's tough to get too worked up, as head-mounted cameras whip between fleeting figures and panicked faces with all the tension of a jittery recording of a trip through your local haunted house.

| Sep 3, 2014

Once upon a time, when someone in a horror movie turned a doorknob or drove toward a storm, you got to feel superior and shout, "Don't go in there!" Now it's more like, "Seriously? You're not gonna put down that camera first?"

Once the characters go underground, things start happening. Not scary things, mind you, but things.

Has a few scares up its sleeve ...

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 31, 2014

The movie's signature signage - "Abandon all hope, ye who enter here" - is the only instruction we really need.

"As Above, So Below" is novel enough to be worth the price of admission, but you'll think twice before getting back in line for a second visit.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 29, 2014

Sometimes it's annoying. Sometimes it's disgusting. Most of the time it's too murky to be either.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 29, 2014

Despite some cool ideas that suggest Dowdle and company will make a great scary movie someday, this is eminently skippable.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 29, 2014

While the film has a reasonably engaging cast and some decent scares, the script feels like an uneasy blend of The Blair Witch Project and Tomb Raider.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 29, 2014

An entertainment-free sinkhole of Dramamine-worthy nonsense ...

| Aug 29, 2014

An intriguing and intensely creepy premise is sqaundered on this rudimentary found-footage horror film.

| Aug 29, 2014

As forewarned, so avoid.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Aug 29, 2014

Like other movies of its ilk, it's missing a very simple bit of next-level Hollywood technology: a tripod.

| Original Score: C | Aug 29, 2014

But alas: once our team gets underground, the film turns into an FPS video game, and a poorly built one, at that.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Aug 29, 2014

One of the world's top disturbing tourist attractions is now finally getting the spooky film it deserves

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 29, 2014

The film predictably alternates in scaring its characters by tapping into their deepest fears and having them rub shoulders with the relics of a past that insists on being undisturbed.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 28, 2014

There are some interestingly contrived moments of claustrophobia and surreal lunacy, but this cliched and slightly hand-me-down script neither scares nor amuses very satisfyingly.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 28, 2014

Throughout, there are flickers of a scarier movie: one prepared to map this boneyard, with its wrong turns and false floors, altogether more rigorously.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 28, 2014

Come for the poster, stay for the end credits.

For those hoping to find some truly disturbing secrets buried for generations beneath the surface, track down Gary Sherman's 1972 "Death Line" (aka "Raw Meat") instead.
