The movie opens with two criminals discussing a bank robbery and the escape plan. Everything sounds fine, and it goes off as planned. Only, when they get into the tunnel that they were to use for escape, they come head-to-head with a slasher with a pick axe that lives in the tunnel and, believe it or not, collects eyeballs.I would not call it as gory movie. Yes, the slasher does use some kind of eyeball-removal tool after he kills, but that wasn't really bad. It is the terror that makes it interesting.Sure, we have seen this many times before. Originality is not something we expect in horror movies. But it was done well and there was plenty of excitement as they try to escape.I am really not sure about the ending, though. It just didn't seem to fit.

This is a Russian entry from the Ghost House Underground collection translated as TRACKMAN. A bank heist is planed at McDonalds using condiments. The robbery itself isn't perfect; good enough though to getaway with money, but bad enough to need hostages. The criminals with hostages in tow take refuge in abandoned underground subway tunnels below a junkyard. Things otherwise is going as planned until they realize they are trapped in the tunnels with no way out and they are not alone. The tunnels are home to a demented serial killer that has an affinity for his victim's eyeballs.Most of the movie is underground making for most of the anxiety and fear. Two very nice looking hostages are played by Yuliya Mikhailova and Svetlana Metkina; and the Trackman is played by Aleksei Dmitriyev. The movie's director Igor Shavlak also has a role.

A splendid movie, in which a couple of Russians end up in a abandoned subway system beneath the streets of Moscow. Before you know it, a freak (mentally and physically challenged one) is poking their eyeballs out with an eyeball.... poking....thingy... Even though they're all armed to the teeth, almost all of them, somehow managed to die. In the end Grom(some Russian fellow) and Katja(Some Russian bimbo) Surprisingly managed to kill the mentally and physically challenged freak and escape on a motor bike. A THRILLING conclusion to a great, twisted, filled with metaphor and eyeballs masterpiece of a movie. A MUST SEE!(if you happen to have an unpoked set of eyes) P.S. I think it would have been a tiny bit better if the guy shoved the eyeballs in his rectum while making the following sound: "Hargh!" Thank you and good night. Sincerely,The eyeball

Trackman could as well be an American movie if you replace the Russian cliché actors with their Hollywood clichés. The whole thing is pretty much ripped from other movies and stretched to the limit. It starts in a pretty modern way where 2 bank robbers make their plan in a McDonalds, time switching to the later bank robbery and back. Although I liked the beginning of the movie it seemed a unnatural and like the director begging to be different. Anyway, we've seen this... although not in a horror movie. So what next... After the robbery fails they take hostages and hide... oh yeah .... in an old abandoned metro tunnel system under a junkyard. You can guess whats coming from that point. Now you got 4 gangsters and 3 hostages to go for a killer who lives down there and has a strange interest in his victims eyes. The whole thing makes absolutely no sense... so the typical comment of one gangster "Did you hear the tale of a mutated maniac living down here" is totally nullified with the ending which is trying to give an endless 80 slasher-minutes some meaning and fails miserably because it makes absolutely no sense with a killer having his eyeball-collection office installed down there. If the movie sticked to its slasher basics maybe it could have succeeded with the eerie atmosphere in the tunnels but still most of the time nothing is happening and the eeriness wears off after seeing dark empty tunnels with something moving far away for the 100th time. The kills are boring, the acting not too convincing and the back story seems too constructed trying to get out of its genre barriers but stumbling across its many plot holes. If you like dark empty tunnels and pickaxe-murders with wielding goggles mixed in with some real annoying modern editing and action-elements thrown in... go ahead. I guess the ending will ruin it even for you... the escape sequence on the motorcycle is beyond laughable.
