This is set right before the Berlin Wall comes down when the commies are running around trying to hide all those experiments which are a no-no. A group on a "unofficial" missions gets caught in a labyrinth of tunnels with a bunch of murderous things.. and well you can probably guess the rest. It looks sweet but unfortunately they're in need of fundage, so if you've got a few million please let them borrow it! They'll pay it back, we swear! Link to teaser and full synopsis after the break.

"November 9th 1989 - the last day of a divided Germany.
As a bankrupt Soviet Empire retreats, Lieutenant NEVSKI (30) leads an ill-equipped team of reluctant Soviet conscripts and two East German civilians on an unofficial mission into a long sealed and forgotten bunker, deep under Berlin. Bribed by SINDERMANN, a mysterious East German scientist, their aim, is to blow up the bunker, destroying it’s secrets before Berlin opens up to the West. As a fateful press conference takes place above ground, the East German, LISA MEYER, (28) a construction engineer cuts through the concrete that back in the 1960s was poured down to block access to the bunker where her father died.
Nevski's rag-bag team follow dim concrete tunnels finding an underground hospital, cobwebs and dust shrouding its Cold War secrets.

Venturing into the eerie decaying wards and operating theatres, the team un-earth horrific evidence of human experimentation dating back to WWII.
Suffering their first casualties of the night, they realise the concrete blocking the entrance was not to keep intruders out, but to keep the results of failed experiments in - murderous, semi organic killing machines with weapons and gas masks moulded and growing as part of their armoured bodies.
As crowds gather at the wall, unification in sight, clandestine forces arrive from the West; heavily armed American commandos, also seeking the bunker's valuable secrets. Nevski's team find themselves not only struggling to escape the bunker's legacy of inhuman killers but also fighting in a darker, more unofficial Cold War battle for power and survival."

Okay I finally downloaded the high res teaser (took forever) and all I can say is WOW. If this gets shown to the right money people I'm sure it'll get made.

It looks like it could be really visually striking and terrifying.
