WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

In 1984, mysterious sounds are recorded seven miles below the surface at the Kola Superdeep borehole, the site of Russia’s largest secret facility. Several decades later, a small group of researchers and military personnel venture into the hole to uncover the source of the sounds, only to find a grave threat to humanity…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

From Russia (with love) comes this intense horror that plays like a Soviet version of The Thing, and with just as horrifying consequences for the main characters.
