One of the most tense and unnerving horror movies ever made

Rating: 9/10 (26 July 2018)

I watched it last night after almost ten years of not seeing it, and I needed to write a review to let people know how important is The Descent for the horror genre. If you love the sense of dread and claustrophobia in movies like Alien, you're gonna love this. Although is highly likely that it will make you squirm in your seat. The whole cast does a superb job. You're gonna really care about these characters and what it's going to happen to them. That just elevates the tension through the roof even more. The music is haunting, emotional and raw, going along perfectly with every sequence of the film. The only downside for me was the presence of a few cheap jumpscares. Personally I hate those because I think a horror movie does not have to rely on them to make you feel frightened.That's why I have to lower the score a little bit. However all the rest makes up for that. If you want a real thrill ride, look no further. The Descent awaits for you.
