    If you go down to the mine today

    A bunch of friends on vacation in the country discover a disused mine and find something most strange down in its depths.

    It starts off in conventional fashion, pretty looking youngsters head off to a large cabin in the woods and after nearly running someone down in the road, they arrive at their destination but nothing is as it seems. The story then spins into another dimension, cribbing from better movies like Triangle and Identity, only the screenplay isn't strong enough to make a success of it, even confusing itself in the process.

    Things aren't helped by director and co-writer Richard Gray padding out the movie to meet the required run time to call it a feature length production. In truth there just isn't enough material here to extend beyond a one hour Twilight Zone episode, better editing and a better screenplay was definitely needed here. Gray over stretching his ambitions somewhat.

    The cast of up coming Hollywood starlets give a mixed bunch of performances, while the low budget is often evident. Neither of these things, though, hurt the film as much as the aforementioned issues. There's a modicum of interest value here for those who like the films already mentioned above, but it's not a comfortable recommendation at all. 4/10

    Slow Cliché Beginnings, Better Finish

    This movie started off painfully dull. Seven friends are on their way to the woods where there will be

    A.) no telephones

    B.) no cell phone service and

    C.) no other human beings for miles.

    Sound familiar? Oh yeah, and on the way to the cabin in the woods (so cliché) their van breaks down. So already I'm half checked out of this movie. The oddities began with the main character, Michael (Joseph Cross), and they only ramped up from there after the gang explored an abandoned mine.

    The exposition and build up phase of this movie was dreadfully slow. We were treated to little tidbits of strange activities without giving us the full entree. Though the plot can be readily deduced with all of the hints throughout you still have to be patient to see how it all unfolds. This movie is not unique and it's been done better by others. I will say that the end picked up the pace and delivered a solid finish. Not all questions will be answered, as is typical with this type of movie, but enough to at least make you feel like you were invited to the party.

    Small but intriguing mystery film

    Seven friends on vacation stumble upon an abandoned mine shaft in the middle of a remote forest and live to regret going in.

    The film takes a while to get to the action which is a positive as you get to know the characters. To the films benefit most of them aren't so obnoxious you want to see them die, which always adds to any tension a film may build up. Although there aren't any real stand out performers the acting is decent throughout. The production values for a relatively small film are of an impressive standard.

    There is a nice air of panic and mystery built up as some of the group slowly to begin see things that they wish they hadn't. This is an unusual story line and is to be applauded for being a bit different. There are a number of unsettling scenes and you never quite know where the film is going to go.

    This is a small film that punches above it's weight and is well worth watching.

    Twisted and Confusing but in a Good Way

    The Mine plays games with your mind...LoL

    I wasn't expecting much at first due to the poor user ratings but mainly thought I'll give it a go as I was so impressed with the beautiful scenery.

    The movie takes quite a while to make sense, but in the end I was satisfied with the meaningful ending cos all they had to do was for somebody or anybody to brake the cycle.

    Overall, original and great story and really worth the watch if you're into high school or college horror/mystery movies.

    An interesting premise destroyed by idiot characters.

    Here yet again, we have an interesting premise with horribly written characters. Maybe most Americans think this is normal behavior or the writer's are not good at moving a plot line, so they write these types of characters in the plots so it's easier to get to the outcomes they envision. Anyway, the movie is kind of interesting, and you might enjoy it. Too hard for me anymore to get past what I feel is lazy writing.

    • Trivia
      After Mikey has gone to bed, the others stay up drinking and playing games. One of the games has each player with a piece of paper with a person's name on it stuck to their forehead and they have to figure out whose name is on it. Guy's (Ethan Peck) paper says "Gregory Peck," his real-life grandfather.
    • Crazy credits
      The ending credits of the US version incorrectly identify the character portrayed by Michael Guillod as "Michael." The actual name of his character is "Matt." As the character portrayed by Joseph Cross is named Michael, the credits give the impression that there are two different characters named Michael in the film.
    • Alternate versions
      There are two versions of the film: the UK and the US versions. The US cut features two new actors: Michael Guillod (Matt) and Lindsay Lamb (Sarah), while Duane Loken (Farmer) appears in the UK cut only. Both versions have the same runtime.
