The Depraved (2011)
4/10
Painfully predictable
7 May 2021
Warning: Spoilers
The people giving this more than 5 stars have obviously never watched a horror movie. Everything about it is predictable, right down to the stupidity level of the kids who go underground with someone they've never met for a "big surprise". When the kid is eating the stew you know exactly what's in it, so when you get the big reveal "Oh no he's a cannibal!" you already know it. The final guy is without a doubt the biggest coward or moron in Berlin since he watches his girlfriend be tortured and almost get killed, but does nothing even though he has a thick steel bar chained to him. And his girlfriend is supposed to be a nurse, but is totally unstable in any situation(no nurse I've ever worked with was this panicky, they wouldn't survive their first rotation)

Even the tour guide breaking his leg in a fall and thus trapping everyone down below is reminiscent of the Descent. AND the girl digging out of the dirt to freedom is the same as the Descent!

The acting is ok, the visuals are good, and the directing was on spot, but the plot was horribly tripe and predictable.
