A good horror/thriller.

Rating: 10/10 (2 August 2006)

Warning, this review contains small spoilers.
I saw a trailer of the movie, it looked swell and I rented it.
Firstly, this movie isn't for people who like to wait 40 minutes to get in some action. Certainly not for people who has been searching for movies where people in masks start chasing young girl down and stabbing them the very first minute of the movie.
The Descent is about six girls who are reuniting after an incredibly sad car crash (this made me jump the first). Some minutes later you see the six going in the cave, surprise surprise, they enter the wrong cave.
For people who haven't heard of this movie but do want to rent it, the movie contains an good amount of gore, story, jumps. The down part is Juno, she really just gets on my nerves with her attempts to calm everybody down. The crawlers really look like hobbits from Lord of the Rings, except they look like they had an bucket of acid over their face some seconds ago. The movie is settled in an pitch-black cave, you hear crawlers screaming and rocks moving. In the beginning you'll see Sarah getting stuck while she was moving in small holes which makes it seem claustrophobic (sp?).
Back about the gore, the gore is fantastic. Especially for a new epic cinema movie. Movies like the Grudge and The Ring doesn't show blood. Unlike their Japanese versions made before them, the Japanese The Descent (which I also watched) was abit better then the new The Descent, thats because the original Descent really laid back in Crawlers and story, yet many buckets of red paint where thrown on people. It didn't seem realistic, the zippers on the coat didn't either.
