this generic monster rehash, unearths nothing worth celebrating. Anchored by a group of nameless scientists investigating urban legend folklore in the coal mines of Appalachia, this bland and frankly un-scary trek sinks just as quickly as it starts
the best thing "The Devil Below" has going for it is its stark, remote location, which evokes the feeling of a world unto itself.. But what happens in front of this striking backdrop is too blandly familiar -- and not nearly hellish enough
it's all very dull and often cliched; "The Devil Below" is a strange endeavor, dealing with a classic set-up for showdown with a grotesque threat, only to have the final cut work extremely hard to throttle intrigue and chills along the way
"The Devil Below" is not particularly tense, jumpy, gory, or frightening; With its mix of bland characters, unoriginality and woeful un-scariness, "The Devil Below" is a disappointing horror
