Horror Vault's take

Deep beneath the streets of Rome, an excavation team breaks into a sealed tomb that should have stayed sealed forever. What emerges from the darkness of the catacombs suggests that something ageless and malevolent once fed on humanity — and may not be finished. This late-eighties Italian horror entry leans into creeping dread and subterranean atmosphere rather than outright spectacle. Donald Pleasence lends gravitas to a film that revels in the eerie potential of ancient, buried secrets.
