robert white This film, it has to be said, is not one of the best movies I've ever seen. Having said that, there are a hell of a lot out there that are worse in every respect. Danny Dyer's acting skills are on par with his usual ability and are pretty well matched by the acting prowess of the rest of the cast. All suffer with the usual, overused problem of being characters who don't deserve us caring about them. There is one character who is so thoroughly obnoxious that I at least thought his death came way too late. The setting is quite effective in creating a sense of claustrophobia, being one narrow tunnel after another. The mystery of the killings and who is stalking the group is somewhat weak to say the least, as is the manner in which they arrive in the titular Basement. As long as you don't go into watching this film expecting to see something amazing, you wont be disappointed. It will leave you with questions that are not answered but to be honest you wont lose any sleep over it.

jim johnson This movie has to be one of the greatest movies I've ever seen in my time. It truly is something of our time. If this movie doesn't get an Oscar I've lost all fate in humanity.It tickles me pink when I watch this, it gives me a special thrill while watching it. This movie is really a scary one! It makes any other suspense/horror movie you may have scene look plain awful. The acting in this movie is absolutely amazing! This star-filled cast does a great job of portraying a true sense of fear and makes you really Feel like you're actually there. And the storyline, wow. The plot of this movie was completely original and keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout the whole thing, if you don't enjoy this movie something has to be wrong with you. Overall this movie is a magnificent and horrifying movie.

claudecarpentieri If ZERO had been an option on the voting scale I'd have most certainly selected it. As it happens, ONE was the lowest available."Basement" has one merit and that's that it made me sign up for IMDb so that I could share with the world what an abysmal waste of time and money this film is.What is unbelievable is the idea that someone, somewhere, thought that this thing could be viable for production and that nobody along the way was honest enough to tell the director, the producers or whoever that perhaps jacking it in would have been more dignified.There's no danger of a spoiler because this film is about nothing. In theory the premises are interesting, not miles away from The Hole. A group of people are lost in the woods and end up in a dark and creepy basement. "Wow" you'd think, "Great!". No it isn't. This is where it all ends. The rest is some sort of tedious, repetitive, shallow, unengaging and inconsequential bilge. It goes nowhere. It says nothing. It's not even dumb. I guess it's the closest a film ever got to representing the concept of nothingness which, in a way, is actually an achievement.Oh, and by the way, the acting is the worst ever. By far. Times ten."Basement" is like a Year-9 project carried out by a group of kids messing about with some recording equipment. Except worse.

Raoni Ceccim (silver-astronaut) I've got now 493 on my list of seen movies over the past few years since I started it (around the end of 2007 and the beginning of 2008) and I've seen some really bad movies. But none bad enough to get a score of 1 on the site! This one's gotta be THE worst movie I've seen in my entire life!I went on to check it because of Danny Dyer and Jimi Mistry, which are both good underrated actors (specially for making some B movies really good and entertaining). On this particular movie, I haven't seen any kind of acting from any of the actors. Seriously, I would do better, and I've only had 1 year of acting classes.please, don't do the same as me. DO NOT watch this movie, unless you've got absolutely nothing better to do. and believe me, even burning your house down out of boredom would be something better to do.
