chernobyl diaries (2012)

"Nature has reclaimed its rightful home."
Three American 20 somethings, Chris (Jesse McCartney), Natalie(Olivia Dudley) and Amanda (Devin Kelley) are touring europe, and stop off in Kiev to visit Chris' brother Paul (Jonathan Sadowski). Whilst there Paul suggests a tour of an abandoned town near Chernobyl, and head off with a local guide and a couple of other tourists. All goes well until they return to their van and find the engine destroyed, and they realise they are stranded, it's getting dark, and there is something out there.
Blair Witch style thriller, that works on a fear of the unknown and unseen level. This works up to a point, but you have to care what happens to the victims, and in this you don't.
