It's pretty bad imo, but iirc there was a bunch of people on here who enjoyed it. There's already a thread on it, I'll find it in a sec.

edit: obviously spoilers in it

I am a huge horror movie fan, and I thought it was one of the best and scariest horror movies I have ever seen. Easily the best of the last couple of years. I saw it in a theater though and have a bit of claustrophobia which could have contributed I guess.

I am a big horror fan and I enjoyed The Descent immensely. I'd love to discuss it a bit, if anyone is interested - should that go in the old thread or this one or what...?

It creates a real fear that not many horror films develop. And it's just different, which is SOOOOOOOOO nice in this day and age of horror movies that are really just slasher/suckfest movies.

I really enjoyed it and it would probably be in my top 10-15 of 2006.

another thing that i liked about it is the entire cast was women and they didnt act like dumb whores just to cater to male audiences. they acted for the most part like real people. they were all attractive women but the movie didnt use sex to sell it which almost all movies of the genre do. and this movie could have easily gone down that road given the cast.

I'm curious if I just missed something during this movie or what? It's been a while since I watched it but iirc it was pretty much just a standard zombie movie, with a small twist at the end.

It could be that this just isn't the kind of movie that's good to download and watch on your computer though too.
