    Catacombs (2007)

    Alright. I need a second opinion from some other Horror fans here. I watched this FEARnet original feature film this past Sunday, and frankly...I feel cheated and satisfied at the same time about the ending. It stars Shannyn Sossamon and Pink.

    -On her first trip to Paris, a young woman(Shannyn Sossamon...whom I have a crush on in real life) hits a party in the Catacombs, the 200-mile labyrinth of limestone tunnels under the city that's lined with the remains of 7 million people. Separated from her friends, she becomes convinced that someone or something is chasing her.

    -The city of romance sits 100 feet above the world's largest catacomb.


    It was written and directed by Tomm Coker and David Elliot. The story has a fantastic pace, and oozes cool atmosphere...but something about the ending made me feel uncertain about my overall opinion of the film. I have to say it was good and every Horror should watch it, but...well, it felt like being mugged when you have like $11 in your pocket...no big loss, you know. I want to see what you guys think of it.

    It's FREE and in your On Demand cable option under FREE MOVIES...then under FEARnet. It's in association with Lions Gate, and is FEARnet's 1st original feature film, and is a pretty unique and entertaining Horror film....check it out.

    It was worth the time it took to watch it. I dont think it would be worth paying to see though.

    This movie was so bad.
    Lurking around the dark for what seems like and endless amount of time, is not entertaining. How you could find that absurd ending enjoyable is beyond me.
    Cardboard acting would an understatement. Nothing about this was good.

    Saw it last night and thought it was sorta decent. I actually kinda liked the ending, not the obvious part but the other.

    I thought it was entertaining while I was watching it the first time, but after awhile you realize that nothing is gonna happen then it gets boring. I'm a fan of Shannon Sossomon and I did like the ending. But the movie isnt anything I'd watch again. And this movie had so much more potential too.

    Creep wasn't very good either, but you are correct it is a MUCH better film.
