As Above, So Below (2014)

Fearless Scarlett is following in her father's footsteps, searching for the Philosopher's Stone. She's venturing into the catacombs of Paris to chase her latest lead and enlists a camera operator, her old friend George, and a catacombs expert (who comes with a couple of friends) to join her.

The darkness and claustrophobia work well with the tension of the story. I don't know Dante's work, but I'm familiar with the concept of the circles of hell and understand that's what's being evoked here. It pretty much works: there's a lot of smart stuff mixed into the jump scares. But, ultimately, it kind of devolved into a messy haunted house storyline.

I really liked these characters and would probably watch a sequel if they made one.
