Eden Log (2007)

A guy wakes alone in darkness with no idea of who, what, where, why or when. The only thing that’s clear is that he’s deep underground. Prepare yourself for a film that begins in darkness and stays there. It’s not poorly lit, it’s accurately lit. The journey through the blackness leads him deeper into mystery while simultaneously teasing answers that won’t make a damn lick of sense until the very end, and even then it's perplexing.
The film reminded me of Aronofsky and Natali's early works; it has a similar kind of vision brought to life from a similarly low budget.
