Catacombs (1988)
In the 17th century, an order of monks in Italy capture and entomb a demon that has possessed a member of their group. 400 years later, school teacher Elizabeth Magrino visits the monastery in order to do some research. What she and the current monks do not realize is that the evil hiding within the catacombs has unwittingly been released.

"Catacombs" is quite literally an extremely underwhelming motion picture experience at every turn and it must surely boast one of the most pointless and talkative and utterly bland confrontations of good against evil that has ever been committed to celluloid. However, on the plus side is the absolutely gorgeous location situated in the heart of the breathtaking Italian countryside, but for the more eagle eyed amongst you sitting out there you will have undoubtedly noticed some anomalies: The abbey and the countryside surrounding it hasn't changed at all during the course of 400 years and as if this isn't strange enough there is still more. It also appears they never seem to bother taking the washing off the line either.
