A group of high school friends reunite years later for a weekend of partying and catching up on old times. Isolated deep in the snow covered forest, they stumble upon a mysterious corridor of light. Like a drug, the corridor's energy consumes them, driving them to the point of madness. One by one, they turn on each other, taking their evil to the next level. Mayhem leads to murder as they race to outlast each other, and the corridor's supernatural powers..... Really don't believe the positive reviews on this site for this movie, they are plants from the studio, see their profile and you'll see that they have only written the one review, these are for the 10 ratings. This film is the pits, and there isn't one redeeming feature to it. As soon as the group reached the hut, I thought we would be treated to some kind of cut price Dreamcatcher. It was late at night and I just wanted to watch something throwaway and fun. It's a horrible piece of film from beginning to end, and the acting doesn't help either. We get the victim who sleeps in the bath, a guy who obviously shaved his head for the role, a guy who is camper than a row of tents, and then, wow, the worst thing about this, discount Bradley Cooper. He is so bad in this, that it has to be seen to be believed. One minute he's fine. And the next he's totally bonkers. I know this is part of the narrative, but the way he turns is just bad, and feels awkward. So the rest of the film consists of the boys walking down the titular place and getting nosebleeds. It's not scary, funny, or even rubbish in a camp sort of way. A bad movie in every aspect of the word.

This is hands down one of the most inventive, creative and disturbing films I have seen in a very long time. It is in the same instant beautiful and repulsive. This film is an indescribable masterpiece -and I don't say that lightly. Don't miss out on this one if you are a Horror, Thriller or SciFi fan. It is truly rare these days to find a film that encompasses completely original ideas, so when a film such as The Corridor comes along it is a true surprise and refreshing blessing. All I can say to the Cast and Crew is... Thank You for something truly original!

The Corridor tells the story of 5 childhood friends meeting in a remote wooded cabin to mourn the loss of one of their mothers. The trip also doubles as a chance to get their friend back on his feet since he suffered a violent mental breakdown after his mother's suicide. This is heavy stuff and this film doesn't shy away from the difficult scenario. Each character is dealing with their own midlife difficulties as well and the cabin stands as a reminder to all of them that those simple days of youth are drifting far behind them now. The entire setup is presented with such a delicate precision in both acting and writing that I found the story seeping beneath my skin long before the horror aspects began. The snow covered winter setting just added to the bleak and somber tone. These men seemed like real people with real problems and not your ordinary horror movie cutouts. Soon one of the men discovers an indescribable supernatural entity in the woods. From there we begin a slow and not so subtle descent into madness and the unknown. This film has some similarities to "The Dreamcatcher" in it's setting but is vastly different in tone. "Dreamcatcher" was popcorn bubble gum horror with some fun moments and few actual scares. The Corridor stays on target and rarely lets you up to breathe from the opening shot to the final haunting music piece "Various Stages" that is played over the credits. I've read several critical reviews addressing the lack of explanation with the encounter. The same critique was given to this summer's Sci Fi Horror epic "Prometheus". Both films raise more questions than answers. Instead of wrapping it all up in the last 20 minutes, you are left with a great deal of mystery to ponder. This is closer to real life, situations are more often then not left unexplained. An explanation would on have lessened the actual horror. When it was over I sat until the end of the credits. This is something I rarely do. For the next few hours I couldn't get it out of my head, always the sign of a well done film.

First of all, "The Corridor" is a fantastic movie. It intertwines a Lovecraftian horror, a fear of an unfathomable alien entity and an analysis of the psyche of a common man, which actually scares the fore-mentioned even more. Let's face it, the typical horror-viewing public is a bunch of numbskulls and teenagers who just want to be entertained with some blood-spurting, well-known monster clichés and an occasional boob flash. Take that away from them and they're lost. "THIS ISN'T THAT ONE THING I KNOW! IT'S SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND I HATE IT!" is a common reaction, and ironically it demonstrates xenophobia pretty well. The part about 5 childhood friends who have grown up into fully grown individuals and realized not only that they have little in common, but that most of them are losers and assholes makes people uneasy even more. The whole film makes the common man uneasy and an inquisitive man excited, and I loved it for that. It deserves a 7 because of it's obviously very limited budget but I gave it an encouraging 8.

From the first frame I was struck by how well it was shot and how spot on the actors are in their performances. It was then that I knew I was in for a good ride. The premise is a classic horror "in the woods" scenario with a believable otherworldly twist. Set in a beautiful snow bound location the Cinematographer's images drip, or better, chill you with their beauty. The film cleverly keeps you guessing and lets you actually do some work as a viewer. No spoon-feeding here. It is a clever, smart script with astute direction and solid acting. You won't be disappointed. Jocelyn O'Neil

Felt like to me they tried to hard to capture the amazing story "Dreamcatcher' by stephen king but whoever wrote this movie is most obviously not king, and should never write movies again. I will agree the horror scenes were really intense, but the movie itself lacked any real story line and just seemed to be bouncing around everywhere. I the acting was 'ok' but i still cant stand the plot, and how we never even know what the hell the 'corridor' is? Why make a movie about a supernatural entity thats only in the movie for 5 seconds? I don't get it. I'd liked to seem the guy with the glasses in more movies, he was the only character i liked and actually was good at his job portraying his role. So if your into brutal scapling, crusifixation, and plot holes everywhere, this movies for you. Otherwise just watch Dreamcatcher.

The Good: With the exception of one actor, the acting was generally believable. The cinematography was decent overall. The Bad: A dragging 30-minute exposition that could have been accomplished in 5 minutes or less. This is a movie not a novel; don't dialog us to death. As time went on I felt my interest in the characters decrease exponentially which, I imagine, stood in opposition to the director's intent. Ultimately, however, it's difficult to tell exactly what the director was going for. Regardless, the exposition never took me anywhere emotionally, and that left me with a "who cares" feeling that persisted throughout the majority of the movie. Character believability also had issues. Without giving too much away, I thought the characters' reactions to the corridor seemed unrealistic. However, I fault the script more than the actors for this. Arguably, though, their reactions could be attributed to the affects of the corridor itself, which would be consistent with the "plot." Nonetheless, it made for awkward viewing and I found myself silently begging the director, "get to the point." Additionally, there are episodes of violence in this movie that were unpalatable. Mind you, I'm a horror fan and can tolerate a fair share of gore. It would be incorrect to call the violence "gratuitous," because I think the violence was necessary for the director to get where he wanted to go. The problem was, the place he went was not fun, exciting, new, or even that interesting. The Ugly: The "hair" and makeup. I mean, wow. It's not often makeup has a hand in sinking a movie, but when you see the bald character in the beginning of the movie you will understand my point. It was so bad I think it skewed my impression of his acting ability. I've read others comment about the special effects. I didn't expect much in this area so it wasn't as big of a deal for me. If you're a stickler for good special effects, you might find yourself frustrated. Overall this movie felt like a bumbled attempt to stitch Dreamcatcher and Donnie Darko together and call it "art" under the guise of a psychological thriller. The thing about psychological thrillers, however, is that you have to get the viewer psychologically invested. This is where The Corridor failed.
