Descent

watched The Descent



I heard good things about it and I must say I was not disappointed. Once you get past the english accents, you come across a film that presses all the buttons of fear and suspense. It effectively keeps you at the edge of your seat.

The premise is basically about a group of girls who undertake to explore an underground cave network. When the entrance caves in (no pun intended) they have to find another way out. Along the way the casualty count rises as they find they are not alone. *cue scary music* Slowly it is every man (or rather woman) for herself as friendships are cast aside in the bid to survive. It is graphic, primal and visceral in its orchestration.
