Four foolhardy tourists - American Dennis (Nick Eversman), Venezuelan Lucia (Nathalie Kelley), French Marie (Catherine de Léan) and Korean Ju-na (Brenda Koo) - sign up for an illicit tour of the dank underworld beneath Berlin. On the itinerary are the eerie bunkers lived in by Hitler's chauffeurs. However, off the menu, is a sadistically deranged former Stasi border guard whose torture method of "pulling off a shirt" is graphically employed on one of the hapless grockles.

Director Rodrigo Garcia has the heavy burden of trying to make the book-to-small screen adaptation of Lauren Oliver's "Delirium" series well enough that Fox will pick it up, but even so he was able to have a little fun with the pilot project during filming. Attached are the close-up portraits he took of the show's central castmembers - like Emma Roberts, Daren Kagasoff, Gregg Sulkin, Corey Reynolds, Billy Campbell, Michael Michele, Jeanine Mason, Erin Cahill, Melinda McGraw, Delon De Metz and Brenda Koo. Lovely, right? View slideshow: Director's 'Delirium' close-ups Garcia didn't just stop there. He's also got one of these portraits for seemingly each and every member of the cast and crew on his Instagram feed. What a fun little side project, not to mention a great way to throw a bone the way of eager "Delirium ...

Even though most of the central cast for Fox's adaptation of Lauren Oliver's Delirium have already begun working on things like table reads, camera tests and what looks to be trailer tagging, casting announcements are still coming through on the show. The latest is a new pair of ladies added in as recurring secondary characters. Per Deadline, The Bling Ring star Brenda Koo joins the cast as Ren, Alex's best friend, while Erin Cahill will portray the sister of Lena.

Cast: Nathalie Kelley, Nick Eversman and Klaus Stiglmeier.
Urban exploration is risky business when four international students hire a local guide to lead them through the ruins of old Berlin. In what they find in the tunnels is more treacherous than this city’s sordid past. In the real hobby, many adventurers can find plenty of rustic decay to archive, figurative history to marvel at and graffitti to indicate where others have dare treaded.
In the movie that takes a simple title of Urbex: Urban Explorer, there might be some confusion in what can be examined. To look around inside any old abandoned building can be exciting. But there is more to this hobby than just going underground. Rank tunnels are often a source for many movies on a tight budget and this tale is one that gets detailed. Nazi bunkers were built within...

“Urban Explorers” offers a horrific twist on the apparently popular new pastime of urban exploration (also referred to by the particularly hip as Urbex or Ue), in which practitioners make their way through abandoned buildings, factories, train tunnels and the like. Directed by the German-Romanian Andy Fetscher, the film unsurprisingly sees a bunch of young thrill seekers getting more than they bargained for during a trek beneath Berlin, resulting in murder and madness a-plenty. The film, out now on region 2 DVD and Blu Ray via Anchor Bay, has gone down well at a variety of genre festivals, having won Best Picture, Best Editing and Best Make-Up, plus Best Actor for Klaus Stiglmeier, at La Screamfest in 2011. The plot kicks off with couple Denis (Nick Eversman, “Hellraiser: Revelations”) and Lucia (Nathalie Kelley), joining Marie (Catherine de Lean) and Juna (Brenda Koo) for a tour of underground Berlin, which will take them...

Urban Explorers
Stars: Nathalie Kelley, Nick Eversman, Klaus Stiglmeier, Max Riemelt, Catherine de Léan, Brenda Koo | Written by Martin Thau | Directed by Andy Fetscher
A few years ago I read a novel called Creepers by David Morrell. It tells the tale of urban explorers and paints a brilliant world of danger and excitement. It would make a brilliant film should someone acquire the rights and bring it to the screen.
And so Urban Explorers offered that promise. The film’s early talk of hidden nazi bunkers and Hitler’s secret spaceship only serves to tantalise further. So it’s something of a disappointment when the film abandons the exploration and turns into a far more conventional stalk and slash type event after about thirty minutes. Think Wolf Creek underground and you get a pretty firm idea of what’s on offer. Except I liked Wolf Creek.

With Screamfest La running Friday, October 14th, through Saturday, the 22nd, at Manns Chinese 6 in Hollywood, CA (at Hollywood & Highland, buy tickets here), we chatted with Urban Explorer filmmaker Andy Fetscher regarding his tense gore-fest, which is set for its West Coast premiere on Tuesday, October 18th at 10pm. Read on for his comments as well as exclusive stills.

Is there anyplace more romantic than Berlin in the Fall? Probably. But that doesn’t mean love can’t blossom in Germany’s capital city amidst friends and strangers alike. It’s just unfortunate the lovebirds decided to celebrate by sneaking into the subterranean depths beneath Berlin on a guided tour of the tunnels and rooms left over from World War II. Unfortunate for them, but pretty convenient for the madman lurking down below. Denis (Nick Eversman) and Lucia (Nathalie Kelley) are a young couple who decide to tack a spelunking adventure on to their date, and they’re joined by two strangers, Marie (Catherine de Léan) and Juna (Brenda Koo), who soon discover a flirtation of their own. The quartet is led underground by their local guide, Kris (Max Riemelt), who has discovered a lucrative little business with these excursions. They head out and down, and after being impressed early on by the immense scope and...

Urban Explorer
Stars: Nathalie Kelley, Nick Eversman, Klaus Stiglmeier, Max Riemelt, Catherine de Léan, Brenda Koo | Written by Martin Thau | Directed by Andy Fetscher
I should caveat this review by saying that there was a bit of a screw up with the print shown during FrightFest; there was a total lack of subtitles. This may not sound like a major problem as the majority of the cast are English speaking, but there’s a particularly major character that speaks entirely in German. By the sound of the director’s comments after the screening, much of this character’s motivation and humour would have been missed as a result.
That said, Urban Explorer still wasn’t a film I enjoyed.

Andy Fetscher's new German slasher flick 'Urban Explorer' may go a long way to put off those whom are effectively nothing more than illegal trespassers. The Martin Thau penned tale has a new trailer and a demented new one-sheet to enjoy. The Papermoon Films production stars Nathalie Kelley, Brenda Koo, Nick Eversman, Max Riemelt, Catherine de Lean and Klaus Stiglmeier. The film itself although German funded is in fact in the English language so for those of you who despise subtitles can breathe a sigh of relief - losers!. You can check out the new poster and of course the newly cut trailer below!...
