The Superdeep is one of the best foreign horror films released this year. This Russian movie resembles the 1982 version of The Thing as a team investigates something strange in a deep mine that’s 12,000 feet into the Earth. They’ll soon uncover that the Russians unearthed something that should stay buried.

The Superdeep stars Milena Radulovic (The Balkin Line0, Nikita Dyuvbanov (Abigail), Kirill Kovbas (Ikariya), Vadim Demchog (Son of a Rich), and Sergey Ivanyuk (Z’olushka). Arseniy Sukhim (Lockout) directed the film from a script written by Victor Bondaryuk (Deadly Still).

Here is the official synopsis:

After reaching depths of nearly seven miles below the surface, unexplained sounds resembling the screams and moans of numerous people were people were reported and the borehole was shut down. But when a small team of scientists and military personnel set out to unearth the source of the strange sounds, they end up discovering the greatest threat that humanity has ever faced.
