Short description

Victoria, a young American on her first trip abroad, arrives in Paris at the invitation of her sister Carolyn, who has been living there. Carolyn takes her to a rave held in the catacombs, the vast maze of tunnels beneath the city where the remains of millions of Parisians were laid to rest two centuries ago. When the sisters are separated from the crowd in the darkness, Victoria becomes convinced that something is following her through the passages.

The film was directed by Tomm Coker and David Elliot, who also wrote the screenplay; the two had previously worked together on the horror short "Aja." Shannyn Sossamon plays Victoria, and the musician Pink appears as Carolyn, with Mihai Stănescu, Emil Hostina, Sandi Dragoi and Cabral Ibacka in supporting roles. It was produced by Mark Burg, Gregg Hoffman and Oren Koules, the team behind the Saw series, and released in 2007 with a runtime of 92 minutes.

Audience response was weak. On IMDb it holds a rating of 4.5 out of 10 from roughly 9,800 votes, and on TMDB a score of 4.8 out of 10 from just over 200 votes, indicating a small and largely unsatisfied viewership. The worldwide box office came to about 2 million USD, a modest return for a production with 80 credited crew members.

What's left behind the scenes

  • The catacombs shown in the film are exact replicas of the catacombs under Paris.
  • The film claims that 7 million bodies are buried in the catacombs, however the official website of the catacombs states a figure of 6 million.
  • The film is set in France, but it was filmed in Romania.
