All contact with a military base high in the desolate wastelands of Colombia has been lost. The authorities - believing the base to have fallen to a terrorist attack - send a nine-man squad to investigate.When they arrive, the men discover a shocking scene of carnage, and only one survivor - a mute woman in chains.
Gradually the isolation, the inability to communicate with the outside worldand the impossibility of escape begin to undermine the sanity of the soldiers.They start to question the identity of their enemy, and the true nature of the strange, silent woman. Is she a terrorist? A victim? Or something moresinister? Something supernatural... Paranoia takes root. Prisoners of fear and the terrible secret they share, their humanity abandoned, the men turn savagely on each other.
This is proving to be one of those very pleasant cases where the more we see and learn of the film the better and better it looks. And with word spreading amongst those who have seen it that the film delivers on the promise of its trailers, well this could end up being one of the international genre finds of 2011. Take a look at the full trailer below.

Was there a Korean movie kind of like this one? A squad of troops wanders through a mist and finds an old house or base or something? I think there even was a creepy woman in there too. I think it was called D-squad or R-Squad or something like that.
It was called R-Point.
This looks so good I can't wait to see it
