About

You might enjoy this if you like scrappy, low-budget creature chaos and cult-camp entertainment in the vein of Hell of the Living Dead or Zombie 3; Not for you if you want originality, polish, or genuinely scary thrills.

Pros: fun bad-movie energy; creepy underground setting; amusing creature suits | Cons: very derivative story; weak acting; often dull pacing
