A post apocalyptic horror story that doesn’t rely on otherworldly monsters or supernatural deities to shed nightmarish terror on the characters. Instead this film brings to light the real demons of our reality-Man! The extent and unparalleled darkness of human capabilities become true and unprecedented in the event of cataclysmic annihilation. The true monster, that shadowy creature that goes bump in the night that fairytale and legend can only hint to is visualized and exhausted in this tale of man’s destruction of humanity!
“In this graphic and violent, post-apocalyptic thriller, nine strangers — all tenants of a New York high-rise apartment — escape a nuclear attack by hiding out in the building’s bunker-like basement. Trapped for days underground with no hope for rescue, and only unspeakable horrors awaiting them on the other side of the bunker door, the group begins to descend into madness, each turning on one another with physical and psycho-sexual torment. As supplies dwindle, and tensions flare, they grow increasingly unhinged by their close quarters and hopelessness. Each act against one another becomes more depraved than the next. While everyone in the bunker allows themselves to be overcome by desperation and lose their humanity, one survivor holds onto a thin chance for escape, even with no promise of salvation on the outside.”
The full unrated director’s cut of The Divide hits theatres on January 13th, 2012.
