Review of Descent (2005) by Michael Z — 02 Oct 2013
Very disappointing. After a fairly promising buildup in the which reasonably believable characters are established, things quickly deteriorate into conventional horror and clichéd action. The direction is unoriginal, the acting so-so.
Super-loud music and noises intended to heighten the scares abound, and only emphasize that the movie has come to nothing but physical fighting with inhuman creatures in a cave. It's basically a 50s B-monster flick with a lot of gloss but nothing new to offer.
If you think about it for a minute, it's also pretty illogical.
