What's it about:
Miles of twisting catacombs lie beneath the streets of Paris, the eternal home to countless souls. When a team of explorers ventures into the uncharted maze of bones, they uncover the dark secret that lies within this city of the dead. A journey into madness and terror, As Above, So Below reaches deep into the human psyche to reveal the personal demons that come back to haunt us all.
What the critics say:
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?"
- Wesley Morris, Grantland
Once the characters go underground, things start happening. Not scary things, mind you, but things.
- Randy Cordova, Arizona Republic
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.
- Bruce Demara, Toronto Star
An intriguing and intensely creepy premise is sqaundered on this rudimentary found-footage horror film.
