[TOMT] [Movie][70s or 80s]

r/

A group of kids is kidnapped and brought somewhere in a wooded and possibly mountainous area. I believe there is a hole in the ground that leads to an underground cave system. I remember one of the kidnappers had a real creepy mask. There was a scene where the kids were trying to escape and they had to swim under water for a short distance and they couldn’t come up for air. One of them can’t make it so he swims up as close as he can to the ceiling and is barely able to get his lips above water and get some air. That’s all I really remember.

    Gotta ask; could it be the Goonies?

    Sounds like Fortress from 1985 (NOT the Christopher Lambert movie of the same name).

    It’s on YouTube if you want to check it out.

    If you’re in the UK, there is a very similar scene in the BBC remake of the famous five that came out a few years ago. I’m wondering if cause it’s set in the past with not particularly well known actors you maybe thought it was an old movie if you came across it?
