Storyline
Anxious to explore the mysterious hidden world under metropolitan Berlin, an international group of four urban explorers hires a local guide, Kris, who leads them into the maze of escape tunnels and subterranean fortifications under the city. When their guide has a bad fall, two of the girls in the group frantically set off to seek help while Denis, the young American, stays behind. Armin, a former East German border guard suddenly appears from nowhere. Out of sheer desperation, Denis allows Armin to lead them and their unconscious guide to safety and it is at this moment that Denis realizes he has just made the biggest mistake of his life!

User Review

Not a lot of innovation but it gets it right on so many levels!

Rating: 8/10


I had the chance to watch this movie at the Fantasia festival in
Montreal and it blew me away. Urban Explorers biggest let down came in
the introduction and story telling that up to a certain point it
followed a bit too closely the usual scary movie blueprint down to the
usual characters archetype (the cool guy, the wannabe hero, the scared
girl, etc.).

I said up to a certain point because the movie really start to shine
once the exploration truly begins. I was sucked in the gritty
atmosphere created by the amazing locations Urban Explorer was filmed
in enhance by the actors who manage to really make you feel
uncomfortable.

All in all this movie is going into my library once released as a must
see for fan of the genre.
