Plot

A group of young tourists, including Chris, his girlfriend Natalie, his brother Paul, and their friend Amanda, embark on an off-the-beaten-path adventure while traveling through Europe. Their curiosity leads them to the abandoned city of Pripyat, once home to the workers of the Chernobyl nuclear reactor. An intense desire for thrill pushes them to book an extreme tour with a local guide named Uri despite the area's heavy radiation contamination. Upon arrival, they marvel at the eerie, untouched remnants of the city, frozen in time since the catastrophic nuclear disaster. The group feels a strange, unsettling aura, yet they remain captivated by the desolate landscape and its history.

As they explore, unexpected events challenge the group's initial excitement. Their guide's vehicle malfunctions, stranding them in the ghost city as nightfall approaches. Tensions rise, and their efforts to find help or fix the vehicle prove futile. Strange noises and glimpses of shadowy figures heighten their fear, making them realize they are not as alone as they initially thought. With dwindling hope and growing paranoia, the group must navigate through escalating dangers that lurk in the abandoned city.

Physical Media Reviews

  • Despite a second-rate plot and lackluster execution, the Blu-ray of 'Chernobyl Diaries' boasts excellent video and restrained DTS-HD Master Audio, though the extras are forgettable.
