Urban Explorer is a 2011 German horror-thriller film directed by Andy Fetscher. The film is about urban exploration in subterranean Berlin. Also known as "The Depraved".
Premise
Four young urban explorers from the USA, South America, Asia and Europe meet up in Berlin via internet to explore the subterranean relics of Nazi Germany. The destination for the illegal tour, through a labyrinth of tunnels, sewers and catacombs, is a special bunker, the Fahrerbunker (Hitler's subterranean garage) which is the center of many legends, where they expect to find the debris of forbidden Nazi wall murals. But when tragedy strikes the group's leader, they soon realize not all things go according to plan.

Reception
The film has so far been received favorably, with Robert Koehler of Variety citing "Fetscher avoids the temptation to push the situation into an exercise in torture porn – an option he easily could have gone for – while nevertheless ratcheting up the horror. Indeed, his one-man-band combination of direction, lensing and editing proves crucial, displaying a balance of craft and patience in building layers of suspense under a horrific setting that goes beyond any urban explorer's worst nightmare."[2]
