Movie Description
THE DESCENT, a claustrophobic and intense British horror film from Neil Marshall (DOG SOLDIERS), follows six courageous young women who venture down a deep, deep cavern in the Appalachian Mountain range. They are expert rafters and rock climbers--particularly the leader, Juno (Natalie Mendoza), and Sarah (Shauna Macdonald), who is still getting over the death of her husband and daughter the year before. Any healing and bonding is scuttled fast, however, once a cave-in cuts off their return route, forcing them deeper down into the darkness, their flashlight batteries dwindling with every wasted minute. The horror builds, the passageways get tighter and tighter, and then Sarah thinks she have seen something moving in the distance, something that looks almost human....


To give away any more would be a crime, but let's just say horror film lovers should find plenty to love here: there's gallons of gore, jump-in-your-seat shocks, and sly references to other films. The women characters are strongly etched, and excellent editing makes it possible to always know what's happening to whom, even as the flashlights are going out, the darkness is moving in, and the unholy screams are echoing off the cavern walls.

Editorial Reviews
"Made with a connoisseur's love of muck, blood, inky darkness, and equal parts elegance and ewwww, THE DESCENT raises the level of the post-BLAIR WITCH, post-OPEN WATER horror game." -- Grade: A-
Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum (08/11/2006)

"The babes are buff and the scares bountiful in THE DESCENT, a full-throttle horror freakout..."
New York Times - Manohla Dargis (08/04/2006)

3 stars out of 5 -- "Prepare to be scared senseless, and then, when you think you have it figured, your certainty will be shaken by scenes meant to scare you even more."
Rolling Stone - Peter Travers (08/24/2006)

3 stars out of 5 -- "[A] deftly made, highly chilling movie that benefits from the uniqueness of having a basically all-female cast."
Box Office - Shlomo Schwartzberg (09/01/2006)

    This is an Awesome Horror Film

    I'll start by saying that I love most films by Maple, and I expected big things from The Descent. It didn't dissapoint. The creatures in this film are absolutely terrifying, they're sick, disgusting, and quite disturbing. If you've seen the Maple film Creep you know what to expect.

    This movie is freaky, bloody, gory, and horrific. It has a great story, a great cast, and an ending to die for. It's original and imaginative, and it maintains a creepy atmosphere from beginning to end.

    The Descent has a very claustrophobic feel to it. It's filmed so well that during some of the sequences you actually feel like you're in the caves with them, and that's not too pleasant.

    Final Verdict:

    5/5

    Rent or Buy?: I'd definitely buy this if you're a fan of horror films.

    IF YOU FIND THIS REVIEW HELPFUL PLEASE REMEMBER TO VOTE. Thank you.
