The Descent (DVD, 2006, Unrated Edition, Widescreen)

"The Descent: UNRATED" is one of the most horrifying films I have sat down and watched in a while. -- With edgy-camera work and significantly drone dark cavern settings; played backdropped against extremely claustrophic undergrounds, you can absolutely smell, feel and breathe the dank, damp, cold rock caves where the ultimate battle of Good vs Evil will take it's battlefield. -- Every year, a group of thrill-seeking, risk-taking women get together to experience an adventure of adrenaline-pumping intensity; (i.e. White Water Rafting, Sky-Diving is mentioned, etc..). This year; one year after one woman experiences the tragic loss of her husband and daughter in a major car wreck; the women have reunited in the Appalachians to explore a series of underground caves never before attempted or marked for discovery. Once below in the caves, claustrophobically tight spaces build extremely tight-taut tension as it becomes clear that these caves have never been explored for a reason. Then, rocks in a narrow-passage give way; sealing the group of women in the caves., seeking a new way out. But it has only begun., as an Evil so devious and cunning lays in wait; ready to attack again., and again., and again. "Survival of the Fittest" has laid it's boundaries and one of the fiercest battles between "Good and Evil" are brought to the big-screen., as these women encounter horror and evil's most frightening menaces in the most tension-intensified manner. (With a mixed reminiscent feel of "Aliens", "Blair Witch", "The Cave" and "Dawn Of The Dead" this movie creates a very tense, uncomfortable reality to it's direction; making you feel as if you are literally trapped in these caves with them.) - An originally made British Horror Film., the truly amazing and enticing feature of "The Descent: UNRATED VERSION" is that it's cast is ALL women. An empowering group of adrenalized women who must save themselves and reveal the inner strength in not just man; or just women... but in all of us. These women perservere and battle brutally; with more primal instinct and brutality than would be expected from Horror Films, where women usually have always lain in wait to be prey. These women show that primal fear in all of us can derive the most primal strength and blinding brutality; in the name of survival. Applauds to the producers for making this film with such a strong, empowering female cast. -- The special-effects are mind-numbing and the film has absolute perfect cinematography and climactic timing. Honestly, I wouldn't change one thing in it. Including a major realization ending!! Simply and Bluntly put; SEE THIS !!!! It's worth every second !!!! Highly Recommended !!
