Review of Basement

Basement (2010)
4/10
Quite atmospheric

Warning: Spoilers
I found this quite creepy in places and i quite liked the final twist .Although the set design was good enough, this could have been shot on a real location probably more cheaply which would have added to its atmosphere, which i think is what was missing. more could also be made of the aggressors.

the performances are OK, but the film does illustrate how difficult it is to keep our attention for 70 plus minutes without a more intriguing premise and more satisfying twists as it progresses.

i think if the stalking creatures were more like the ones in "The Descent" or "Creep" there wouldn't be so many bad reviews, but of course the story (without wishing to add a spoiler) precludes this.

i have watched big budget movies that have wasted my time far more than this does
