Review of The Descent

The Descent (2005)
6/10
Entertaining British Horror
10 January 2006
Neil Marshall follows on from his previous Brit-Horror outing, Dog Soldiers, with this tense gory offering about a group of female friends who every year meet up and participate in an adventure, this years excursion is Caving, in deepest darkest middle of nowhere.

Interesting characters and a tense storyline make this movie well worth watching and proves that Marshall really has got his finger on the pulse of what is a difficult genre to come up with new and interesting ideas. He does though, in parts, borrow from other movie makers to good effect and keeps you guessing as well as thinking about this film until well after the thought provoking ending.
