"End of the Line" (2007) overview

Karen (Ilona Elkin), a young psychiatric nurse, boards the last subway train headed towards the end of the line. Suddenly it stops in the middle of the tunnel, and the nightmare begins... A group of religious cult members have finally gotten their long awaited signal that the Armageddon has started, and it is now their sacred duty to save the souls of as many people as possible.

Caught in a whirlwind of murder and madness, Karen and a few survivors band together to fight the Cult members in the dark underground tunnels of the subway. But can they even trust each other? And why are they seeing terrifying supernatural occurrences? Could the Cult be right?

Reviews

“An original and ambitious take on the survival horror genre, it plays on modern paranoia, recasting religious extremism through the lens of slasher and zombie movies. The menacing atmosphere is aided by deft art direction and creative special effects that belie the film's minuscule budget. Reminiscent of the early works of such filmmakers as David Cronenberg, John Carpenter and Wes Craven, End of the Line shows the kind of innovation and vision that suggests bigger things are to come from writer-director Devereaux.” - Jesse Wente, Toronto International Film Festival

“...It's at least twice as intelligent as most of the big budget horror films... What really sets the film apart is the eye-catching cinematography, the haunting music, and the incredible makeup and effects... When budgets are tight and filmmakers have to really push to make their ideas stand out, that's where you'll find the most creative horror stories.” - W. Andrew Powell, The Gate - Entertainment Magazine, Canada
