Starring: Charlotte Riley, Dervla Kirwan, Branko Tomovic
Director: Steve Stone
Premise:
A British TV crew head to the remote Siberian forest try to uncover a mystery of 34 unidentified bodies found in shallow graves. The crew finds more than they bargained for when they stumble upon an abandoned hospital.
My Take:
While I am growing a little tired of the "found footage" subgenere and the abandoned building setting, this one was brings enough to more than hold my attention. There are penty of genuine creepy stuff and scares in the movie. Yes, there are a few issues but over all it is more entertaining than most of this variety.
Rating: So Good

Proud to admit that I am a horror junkie. However, my definition of what falls under the realm of horror entertainment is fairly wide. Horror is an emotion experienced differently by individuals. These are short reviews of the movies, television series, novels, comics, albums, and any thing else which crosses my path if I feel like falls into the wide world of horror entertainment.
