Comment:
It was a fun action adventure horror film shades of Alien and any other creepy movie you can name where you never really get a good look at the creature killing everyone.

An archaeologist has found a church with a deep cave running beneath it. There was a cover stone that was broken and it looked like someone might have tried to go in (we know they did because some men broke in during the credits). The scientist calls for a team of diver/cave exploration specialists. These young people are to explore the caves with him, his lovely biologist and their cameraman. Now add in the cave is in the Carpathian mountains and we soon learn that there is a parasite in the cave creatures that seems to live after they've been killed and your well on your way to a weirdly twisted proto-vampire action film.

The best way to enjoy the film is to not expect more than a couple of hours of great photography, caving, diving, and non-stop running for their lives. Enjoy it for what it is not what is isn't.
