If you can only watch one horror movie this upcoming spooky month, let it be As Above So Below. It's an awesome adventure movie that takes place in the Paris Catacombs. It was the first movie officially allowed to be filmed there, and even has footage from the restricted areas!
The movie reminds me a lot of Uncharted, where the main character (who is a mix between charming, batshit insane, and intelligent) goes searching for an ancient relic and ends up getting way more than they bargained for. In this case, it is the Philosopher's Stone.
It was pretty universally panned by critics and audiences, getting some really low scores. However, everybody I have shown the movie to has really loved it and has proceeded to show it to their friends as well.
I really love the horror genre, but horror movies have always been really underwhelming for me. I think it's mostly because they just don't scare me... they don't really get under my skin at all. This one doesn't do that either, but the actual story going on here is way cool. So if you find yourself in the same boat, and you also like shit like Uncharted/Indiana Jones/Tomb Raider, you'll probably love this.
You can watch it on YouTube with ads in DVD quality. Brave will let you skip the ads. Just giving an easy link here for those that don't want to go searching for it. Not sure if it is on any streaming platforms. Just find a way to watch it. This movie is fucking awesome.
