The Descent

The best modern horror film out there. Me and my cousin went to see it in the cinema, it terrified her enough to make her jump out of her seat and slapped me when the first Crawler appeared. We both watched the rest of the film hiding behind our jackets. I still bought it on DVD and rewatched it to death because it's that ****ing good.

They take the fear of claustrophobia and turned it to the max. The introduction of the Crawlers is a great surprised and I love the fact they took a slow burn approach with them and not shove it in our face. If you have a heavy heart for a loss of a child and partner, the fear of being caved in somewhere that hasn't been discovered. Then the crawlers are the icing cake on this emotional ride.

The group of friends are great. All different but they're all there for support for Sarah, who's family had a tragic fate a year before. Turns out she's the strongest of the group as she fights for her life. Even more after finding out that her closest friend had a little sumthingsumthing with her former husband. Babe just can't get a break. One thing I can nitpick on... errrmmm nothing really. I even liked all the of alternative endings. I guess I just wished they didn't make a sequel because I like the thought of Juno dying in the first film.

It's a new classic that is required viewing for horror fans of all types.
