After finding the perfect location, they discover a hidden cave on the property and decide to explore with Alan, their local coordinator, and his assistant, Pepe. The cave reveals a long abandoned Japanese military base, dating back to WW2. Further investigation uncovers several dried up corpses, but curiosity outweighs fear and they walk further.

It’s not a total wash, but the eventually dreary mix of vague religious morality and rather ponderous horror suggests Katagiri should pay more attention to script development next time out. Read full review

"Gehenna" features impressive gore effects, but the plot's an uninspired hodgepodge of dozens of other "haunted structure" pictures, set at a plodding pace, in a gray, dim location. It peaks in its first five minutes. The remaining 100 go nowhere, slowly. Read full review

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A Bunker in Time: Gehenna is defined at the beginning of the movie as the most accursed place or destination of the wicked. So a little advice, don't go. A group of diverse colleagues travel to Saipan in search of a place to build their next new resort. #pleasebuildingehenna. They stumble upon an "abandoned" WW2 bunker. Careful kitties, curiosity will kill you. Over, and over, and over again. There are a lot of storylines and clues throughout; such as the evil voodoo like dolls, the emaciated old man hiding in the shadows, the complete change of appearance of the bunker, and of course when good ole Pepe starts going crazy! Guide Pepe or should we say #voteforpedro was a delightful addition to the film. And to make matters worse, the travelers start to face the darkest skeletons in their closest. Moral of the story is die first and don't go into weird foreign caves. You will die and then fall into an endless perpetual loop in Gehenna! Worst secret: Paulina losing her son...woah so much guilt!

Spring Break 2019 hot spot: The WW2 Bunker Escape, Room: Gehenna

Most unnecessary scene: let's start this movie off with a good face cutting. Ok! #skinmasksbyedgein Overall Grade: C+… Expand
