The Descent is directed by the same man who did Dog Soldiers, but imo this movie is much more tense. In fact it scared the ba-jeezus out of me. I am crossing cave exploration off my to do list after watching this movie. I must have jumped and infact screamed a few times. I think I have indigestion now and don't feel sleepy at all even though it's past midnight here.
A group of women who enjoyed doing extreme sports together get together after tragedy has separated them for a while. They decide to go explore a cave, but the leader chooses new area without telling any of the other women, and it turns out to be a very, very bad idea.
It is supposedly filmed in Appalachia, and the mountains are green and beautful. I was half expecting the women to meet up with the boys from Deliverance, but it's much worse.
Not for the squeamish, but very well done. I'll rate it 4/5 acorns.
