Arcadian isn't that bad, but it doesn't fully realize its potential - to blame like many times these days is the script: we have some (lots of) issues with logic - why, after all those years, did the creatures decide to break through the ground now and not earlier? Also, the story feels like it's on autopilot: of course, our romancing teens survive (cringe-worthy - just as our Romeo is about to be punished, the creatures conveniently emerge from below to feast on the villain, but well, love conquers it all I read somewhere, so maybe the goddess Venus did intervene), while only the adults get killed. Furthermore, I found myself questioning how the brothers managed to survive for so long; as soon as they're introduced, they start fighting each other and making mistake after mistake. However, if you can switch off your questioning brain cells (these days a highly recommended procedure to get some entertainment) you might find some entertainment value here. Recommended for die-hard fans of Mr. Cage and/or post-apocalyptic scenarios.
