Plot hole: Natalie uses her cell phone to record the injured and bleeding Chris, but it never occurs to her to use the phone to call for help? And how is it possible that in 2012, she seems to be the only one with a cell phone? It is simply not possible that she could not get a signal - the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone is festooned with mobile telephone masts - precisely because of the inherent danger of being lost there.
Chernobyl Diaries (2012)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Bradley Parker
Starring: Jesse McCartney, Devin Kelley, Nathan Phillips, Dimitri Diatchenko, Ingrid Bolso Berdal, Jonathan Sadowski, Olivia Taylor Dudley
Genres: Horror
One by one, the group of tourists are captured and killed by the people ("mutants") that live in the town of Prypiat and also in Chernobyl, until only Amanda and Paul remain. They become poisoned with radiation while running from their pursuers, then stumble upon a group of soldiers, and they kill Paul when he approaches them. Amanda is taken to a facility where the scientists reveal that the "mutants" are escaped patients. Since no one is looking for her and there can be no witnesses regarding the escapees, Amanda is placed in a room full of patients/mutants and gets devoured.

Suggested correction: Uri said at the beginning of the film that he has never gotten a signal whilst in that area.
Then Uri is wrong, or he is lying for some bizarre reason. The Chernobyl Exclusion Zone is festooned with mobile antenna masts and if there was one place on earth where you could absolutely guarantee getting a signal, it is there.
