DVD Synopsis

Cuba Gooding, Jr., Ron Perlman, and Ray Winstone star in this horror thriller following a team of mercenaries on a mission to rescue a scientist from an underground lab, where they encounter an ancient evil that threatens to overtake mankind should it find its way to the surface. Contracted to rescue a scientist (Perlman) who was trapped under the Middle East desert while researching a profound archaeological discovery, fearless war veteran Mack (Gooding, Jr.) and his squad of elite U.S. mercenaries descend far beneath the surface with no clue of the horrors that await them below. Deep beneath these desert sands dwells a thousand year old secret that's not of this earth. Guided by a mysterious priest (Henry Rollins), Mack and his team discover that some secrets are best left buried when they reach the underground laboratory and all hell breaks loose. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Yes, we've seen this movie before:

A group of hard-core Marines are dispatched to a remote location to track down
what happened to the workers that have fallen off the face of the planet. During
their stay, they are mind-f+++ked by the evil that awaits them.

I must say that Cuba Gooding Jr. really impressed me this time. His character is in
a dark place already (flashbacks of Iraq and post-traumatic stress) and he has to keep
his cool and lead his Marines literally into the mouth of hell. This is Cuba at his finest, layering his role with actual Marine tactics and body language. We have forgiven him for "Snowdogs".

The other standout in the cast is the dude who plays "Click." ( The techie/rookie) that
is the only one with common sense and delivers several funny lines when they're up to their necks. The gore is here,the nudity, too.There is even time for a brief lesbian make-out scene which was erotic,yet disturbing. The director manages to keep us in suspense even with a tired and overused "Aliens" storyline.
