About This Movie

12 Kilometers is a fascinating dive into horror with a distinctly unsettling atmosphere. Set in the bleak landscapes of 1980s Russia, it explores the psychological horror that comes from confronting one's own fears. The pacing is deliberate, building tension as the scientists descend deeper into the abyss with their drilling. What really sets this film apart are the practical effects; they lend a gritty realism that can be jarring in the best way. The performances are solid, capturing the desperation and dread that permeate the crew's descent. It’s not your typical monster flick—it's more about the dread of the unknown and how fear can manifest in unexpected ways. A unique entry in the genre, for sure.
