Any good?

Nope. Just watched 'After' and it was pretty bad. Predictable storyline and it doesn't have much to do with urban exploring. Characters were dull and the plot was very weak. Unfortunate.

How were you able to view it? It isn't out yet?

A little bizarre, drags in parts but certainly not a 3.5 which is the rating it is getting right now. I gave it a 7.

Acting is ok, the plot is telegraphed toward mid movie. The sets are no doubt inexpensive but well done. Presumably a crawl through an old factory somewhere but there is considerable attention to detail.

Decent sound track. I like the Red Elvises number in particular.. switch of Sad Cowboy Song to "I was born in Chernoble...".

The only thing I found thoroughly annoying was the camera work. Constant jerky, false coloration, fade into a light... over and over and over. Just a little too frenetic and overdone for my tastes.

But heck, there's no explaining taste. Some obviously hated it. Others liked it. You'll never know if you don't give it a try.

Watch "Descent" instead if you want a superior horror/storyline/claustrophobic feeling + some gore. Watch "Reeker", "The I inside", "Stay", "Jacob'S Ladder", "Dead End" for a similar premise and superior entertainment factor.
