The independent horror film SHALLOW GROUND combines elements of the genre that will keep all types of fans happy, relying equally on gore, atmosphere, and a narrative of suspense and mystery. Local sheriff Jack Sheppard, still wracked with guilt a year after failing to solve a series of murders, is forced to close down his precinct. However, on his final day, Sheppard is presented with his first lead in the case for months, in the form of a blood covered naked man who stumbles into the station. Unfortunately, the man seems to be a total amnesiac, unaware if he has committed any crime. Now Sheppard must try and discover the man's identity in order to gain insight into the crimes that have stymied him for so long. [More]

Provides a cast-iron example of that well-known movie maxim: Never Trust A Little Old Lady (at least not one that’s played by Patty “The Bad Seed” McCormack).

Sure, this is filmed like a standard B-movie thriller, but the plot keeps us guessing ... and it's creepy and unsettling enough to give us nightmares.

Os efeitos de maquiagem são ótimos, mas o roteiro estúpido a direção repleta de clichês de Sheldon Wilson só ficam acima das péssimas atuações de todo o elenco.
