The Descent

Dir. Neil Marshall · United Kingdom · English

Scream your last breath.

What happens

After a personal tragedy, Sarah joins her friends on a caving expedition in the Appalachian Mountains. But when a rockfall traps them deep underground, their adventure turns into a nightmare. As they search for a way out, the group discovers they are not alone—lurking in the darkness are savage, cave-dwelling creatures. With rising tension and dwindling trust, the women must fight to survive against both the predators and each other.

What the critics said

Notable Critics

"Finally, a scary movie with teeth, not just blood and entrails -- a savage and gripping piece of work that jangles your nerves without leaving your brain hanging."

— Jim Emerson

"An object lesson in making a tightly-budgeted, no-star horror pic work through razor-sharp technique and committed performances alone."

— Derek Elley
