The Descent

Just watched this movie with my girlfriend and, even though it was only playing on a 17" monitor with little speakers, it still scared us. I can only imagine what it will be like in the theaters, when it hits the US in August.

Don't want to reveal too much but it's definitely a must see. But be warned, this movie will mess you up and nightmares are a guarantee. My girlfriend can't sleep, she's still shaking. Then again, it didn't help that I turned the bathroom lights off while she was taking a shower. ....I'm a bad bad boyfriend.
 
I got the Region 2 DVD.


This film is one of the best horror flicks of the last 10 years.
No joke.

It has one of the sickest opening scenes in recent memory.

Neil Marshall is the real deal.

I cannot wait to see this on the big screen.
 
Some of us our overseas. It's been out, here in Thailand, for a while. Not sure why it was delayed in the US. But hey, you all get to see all the big movies first. Let us have this one. :)

watch the UK ending.


Ooohhh...... so she died in the cave then?

It makes a little more sense; I was wondering how the "crawler" wound up in the jeep w/her.

I enjoy it that much more now.

JKC, that wasnt a crawler, that was the ghost of Juno.

Juno was seeing her Husband.

If you remember, Sarah was hallucinating through out the whole cave, and hearing her daughters laugther, remember? The reason she saw her daughter everytime she closed her eyes was because of the guilt, after leaving Juno to die, she emerges out of the cave, into the car, and sees Junos ghost because of guilt. But in the original ending, its all a hallucination, shes not in the jeep, she didn't get out, shes still in the cave, and she hallucinates her daugthers birthday cake one last time before the crawlers jump onto her.

make more sense?
 
This was an awesome movie. Wasn't much of a creepy scary though more filled with "Jump" scares.

The audience wasn't the best (Lil' rowdy) but it still scared people so "The Descent" was definately worth it.


(EDIT: Thanks guys)

Wow.... I must be slow because I didn't get that at all. I didn't know that Juno was seeing her husband. Was this established in the first act? I admit that I sort of tuned out during the cabin scenes. But, I thought she was pissed because Juno killed her friend and the proof of it was the necklace charm thingy the dying girl had held onto.

Thanks for the insight.

I gotta see this movie again.
 
See, I figured it was a halucination because they mentioned halucination as one of the symptons of the situation they were in and when she got to that huge bone pitt, it looked like she fell asleep. At that point I figured she was dead but the ending threw me for a loop.
