More safety tips from the civic-minded Mr. Schager:

If The Cave lies beneath Hell (as its poster and trailers state) but only extends a scant few miles below Romania's Carpathian mountain range, then Satan's lair must be dangerously close to the Earth's surface and all young American children attempting to dig their way to China must immediately halt their projects lest they inadvertently create a new skylight for Beelzebub's fiery residence.

And Walter Chaw of Film Freak Central has apparently been sitting in on our 7th Sea game:
