Do you call it a horror movie..HELL NO

Rating: 5/10 (29 July 2013)

To be serious after watching the descent i was not able to decide whether to include it in horror genre or not..It did'nt scare me at all..I would have rated it better if it was an adventure thriller and not promoted as a horror film..
More than 60 or 70 minutes of The descent consists of just adventure and some nice thrills with girls moving down and down inside the cave due to which the movie got the title The Descent..
And as they descent down the cave we get to see some humanoid creatures which were perhaps the weakest things i have ever encountered in such type of films who were not too much for the girls..Had there been the cannibals the movie might have generated nice scary moments..
For most of the time the girls dominate those creatures who were quite a lot in number as compared to just 5 or 6 girls..The director tries so hard to scare the hell out of the viewers but fails miserably otherwise if we talk of some thrill and adventure he has done a decent job.Special effects are fine too but not scary..
What was more disappointing was the time devoted to the action sequences between the girls and those humanoid creatures which was less than 30 minutes..Had it been more i would have definitely rated it higher..
Never the less The descent is watchable considering that you don't expect it to be a horror movie that will make you pis* your pants
