The Descent is in one word brilliant !

Rating: 10/10 (27 December 2005)

In 2002, Neil Marshall made his big debut with Dog Soldiers. Now he goes one step further with 'The Descent'.
*SPOILERS FOR THE STORY* The story starts of with Sarah, She loses her husband and daughter in a car crash. Now, one year later she is in America with her best friend Beth to reunite with her three other friends, Juno, Rebecca, Sam, and a newcomer Holly. They plan to go caving the next day, after their way out has been blocked thing's even start getting worse. They discover there are bloodthirsty monsters in the cave. there is only one more way out of the cave and the girls will have to fight for their lives to escape.
'The Descent'is a big surprise if you look at the quality. At first it looks like a B-movie, but the movie has pure style.
The realism of the movie is extremely well set and what makes the movie even more scary are the dark and small spaces which creates massive claustrophobia. *SCENE SPOILERS* like the scene where Sarah is stuck in a tunnel with not much light and rocks which are just about to collapse. The Descent stars Shauna Macdonald as Sarah, Natalie Mendoza as Juno, Alex Reid as Beth, Saskia Mulder as Rebecca, MyAnna Burning as Sam, and Norah Jane No one as Holly. the Descent is a movie that you should watch in the dark, and if you get the chance to watch it, you should take it.
