Descent 1 was probably one of the best Horror-Movies in the last decade. At least in my opinion that is. It had good actors, a great setting and interesting monsters.
All things missing in most Horror-Flicks these days. When Sarah got stuck in that tunnel i thought my heart just stops beating. And there were not even any monsters in that scene. It were scenes like that, that made it a great movie.
They never explained anything, you never knew what really happened. Did Sarah (and the others maybe too) just snap and did she kill all her friends? Were they only hallucinating?
The sequel was a sure thing after the success. And a sequel of course destroys all of that. They need to bring explanations in a sequel, otherwise it's only lame.
The story needs to be pushed further, that's what sequels are for. Descent 2 has no real story. A chubby sheriff forces a traumatized girl into a cave again, in which she nearly died shortly before? That's how they wanted to bring Sarah into the new Movie?
Why did'nt they just use the other ending of Descent, where Sarah never escapes the cave? That way it would've made so much more sense for her to be there. How this chubby sheriff thinks he can climb down in that cave, makes you wonder too. He'd never be able to come very far in a cave like that. Then they find the camera, used in part one and you get proof that those monsters were not hallucinations of Sarah, they're on Film. One after another gets killed very bloody.

Then they find Juno! Yeah the Juno we saw die in part one. The Juno who got jumped by twenty of these monsters after Sarah injured her badly. But we are to believe she survived all that.
She became in the two days between part 1 and 2 an amazon-like fighter without any bad injuries. And she tells the others, she'd know the exit. So why is she still down there then and has'nt escaped already? The stupid sheriff meanwhile handcuffs Sarah to himself? No, actually more a desperate attempt to add some tension to the story. Things of course go wrong and the sporty sheriff of course falls down into a hole while Sarah lies above on the Ground screaming in pain. Instead of pulling him out of the hole (I mean, there were THREE girls there!) they decide to cut of his hand in a very bloody scene!
Then Juno dies! Why pretend she survived only to kill her minutes later again? Sarah dies too. The other girl escapes the cave. But then the man that brought Sarah to the Hospital in the beginning of the movie finds her in the middle of a giant wood and knocks her out and brings her body back to the cave, apparently in order to feet the creatures. That's the end of the Movie. You never get to know why he did it, or more interesting why he did'nt do it to Sarah in the beginning, nor how and what he knows about the monsters.
All in all this is not a real sequel but a poor try to re-tell part 1. You do not find out anything new. Nothing really interesting happens.
And the thing with the guy is really stupid. It's a gory Horrormoie with some nice bloody scenes in it. But you'll find yourself desperately looking for some logic. What a horrible, horrible follow-up to one of the best horror experiences of the past decade. Where the first film was suspenseful and claustrophobic, this film displays constantly open cave dwellings and is repetitious to the point were no suspense can be truly built. I swear this takes place in an entirely different cave system, despite the film claiming it's supposedly the same exact one.
Not even the revisited stomping grounds look the same. The original film also used light sparingly in an attempt to actually make the audience feel as if they were trapped in a cave with the cast of the film.
This sequel constantly shows bright surroundings, with light coming from unseen sources-particularly overhead, making it feel as if these characters aren't inside a cave system in the first place. Apparently the cave dwellers like to place small lava lamps and glow sticks around their territory because they.
I'm not sure where all this light was coming from! Strangely our characters can't seem to see what's going on even with all of this illumination and they keep bumping into each other in the 'dark.' Maybe there were budget problems but that doesn't excuse the lousy script and characters.
Shauna Macdonald tries her hardest to keep the film afloat (she's pretty solid with what she has been given to work with), but I imagine this would be like what Sigourney Weaver would be doing had she been trapped in an AVP film. She seems like the only honest character in the film, suffering from the events of the prior nightmare, but the supporting casts around her are nothing more than bumbling idiots. You don't feel anything for any other member of the cast. Despite David Julyan's score swelling in some of the fateful scenes, I felt almost no emotion behind any of the events this time. None of the deaths or tragedies make an impact like the deaths of those in the original movie. In fact, one scene at the end tries to tie up a major story thread from the previous movie, but it simply comes off as tacky and against the grain of the characters we have come to know.
The final nail in the tragically shoddy coffin is the ending, which is also funny whether intentional or not. Related Recommendations: The Descent, The Thing, Eden Log, Pandorum, REC, Cube, Pitch Black.
Viewed at the Marche du Film, Festival de Cannes 2009 Picking up almost immediately where The Descent left off, the bloodstained Sarah has made it out the cave system, is taken to hospital and then back into the caves as an unwilling member of a rescue party to find her missing friends. If you saw the first film, then you know what happens in this one. If you know the horror genre, then you know who will get offed, too.
None of which matters a hoot, because familiarity breeds respect and cast, director and writers, deliver exactly what viewers want. There are the crawlers, lots of blood, some nicely delivered shocks, plenty of gnarly special effects and women getting down, dirty and deadly with climbing axes, bare hands and lumps of rock. Because all concerned have resisted the urge to widen the story, introduce new things for the heck of it (such as, I dunno, flying crawlers), The Descent: Part 2 is actually much stronger than is usually the case for sequels. A left-field twist right at the end could be a set up for part 3, but it's hard to tell. While it didn't come as a surprise (those horror genres again), it did feel a bit tacked-on. But that's a very minor quibble and does nothing to detract from what is a great piece of horror entertainment and a worthy successor to its predecessor.
I should end my review right there. But in the interest of taking up useless e-space, I'll continue. For me, The Descent Part 2 had 2 strikes against it before the opening credits rolled. Director Neil Marshall has not stepped back behind the camera to further his already finished story and the sequel is a continuation of the North American ending. Now, if you're one of the special people who were able to see the original a year, or maybe more before the North American release, you'll know that the original ending is superior in every way. It wraps the story up, and fits in with the rest of the film's bleak, hopeless tone.
I'm not sure if studios feel that us American's are stupid, or if we just are too fragile to handle a down ending, but whatever the case, our protagonist survives. Found running through the woods, caked in blood, she's rushed to the hospital. Found to remember nothing upon initial questioning, the sheriff leading the search for the other missing girls decides the best course of action is to take this woman-in-shock directly back to the place that caused her the trauma. Somehow, The Descent 2 manages to continue where the first film leaves off, but feel like a complete cash-in at the same time. Some scenarios are lifted directly from the original. In the first film, the overwhelming sense of claustrophobia was treated as a character in the movie.
It's one of the reasons the first film was so effective. Seeing those petite women barely making it through the holes in the cave left you feeling uneasy. This is not present in the sequel. In fact, the sheriff is a pretty big guy. I'm not going to say he was fat, but he's definitely built, and he manages to move with ease throughout the corridors.
The original actresses return to reprise the roles of Sarah, and Juno, whom is somehow still alive, even though we heard her screaming while she was torn to shreds in the first film. Apparently, in her 2 days of surviving the creatures in the cave, she's become some sort of commando, hunting down and killing the cave's inhabitants. She has a short part, and half of her part is spent completely silent.
They try to describe it away by saying something to the extent of 'Silence is your best weapon' but it feels tacked on. One of the biggest problems with the sequel is it's pacing. In the original, we weren't even introduced to the creatures until like an hour into the film. The entire first hour was spent on character development, and building suspense. We knew they weren't alone, they knew they weren't alone, but the menacing creatures weren't really introduced until the third act.
Here, it's as if the director just wanted to get to the killing as quickly as possible. We don't know anything about most of the characters, and we don't care when they are killed off. In the original, you could tell that all the girls were close friends, and you could tell that when one of them was picked off, it effected the rest of the characters. Another problem I had were with some of the special effects. Don't get me wrong, there is some decent gore in The Descent 2, including one hell of an amputation scene, but there was something wrong with the blood. It's as if the special effects team have never actually seen blood before.
When characters are wounded, we're treated with an arterial spray of what appears to be Cambpell's tomato soup, in both color and consistency. All in all though, it's a watchable flick. It's loaded with problems, some forgivable, some not(Random, unexplained twist ending.) But I've seen worse movies, and certainly worse sequels.(Butterfly Effect 2?) But if you enjoyed the creatures in the first film, you'll probably find something to like about the sequel, just don't expect it to be anywhere close to the brilliance of the original, and you'll have fun. THE DESCENT 2 is like FINAL DESTINATION 2 or WRONG TURN 2 or about 100 other horror sequels, in that we get more of the same and it's usually not as good as the original.
In this case, the editor of the first movie is the director of this one, and clearly wasn't given the greatest script to work with. But he does about as good a job as anyone in his position probably could. A rescue party goes into the caves to find the missing girls from the first movie, and they drag a shell-shocked Sarah from the first movie along with them. We do not have to wait long for the cave creatures to show up and start eating the would-be rescuers.
Since we have been through this once already, there is far less shock value this time around. There are, however, a couple of kick-ass fight scenes and the film is perhaps even bloodier than the original. Accents are all over the place, as it was filmed in England and not in Appalachia, where it is supposedly set. In truth, Part 2 is not a must-see unless you are dying to see what happened to Sarah.
My first reaction when I came across this was a positive one. I enjoyed the first film and was prepared for more stumbling in the dark claustrophobic underground trying to find the light at the end of a suspenseful movie. This soon changed as the film turned into a laughing joke echoing stupidity through plot holes that were as deep as the abyss. It all started when the sheriff decides(with minimal information of the situation)that the help of Sarah was needed to find any survivors.
That the hospital bedridden Sarah who seems distraught, who supposedly doesn't remember anything is to gear up and go cave exploring again 2 days after she emerged covered in blood which according to analysis has matching blood types of her friends. From here I knew it was all going to go down (but I didn't know the unfit over-sized sheriff was going to go down there with them lol jk jk). So, I will not bother writing more about all the nonsensical things.
You can try to enjoy it yourself or if you already have (as I see of now, it currently has at least 6/10) which I find ridiculous but fairly fair. At most it has the 'stumbling in the dark' so enough said. I saw the premiere of this at Frightfest in UK. The film was introduced by the director (previously an editor) and actors - and the director's complete absence of any self-confidence when talking to the audience was a bad omen. Shauna McDonald even said 'be nice to him. He isn't Neil Marshall - but he might just be better' which felt embarrassingly over-supportive. If he can't talk to strangers, is he really going to have the confidence to direct a film?
Descent 2 is full of bad acting, flat characters (even Sarah and Juno seem suddenly devoid of character or depth), a very poor script, bad editing and very bad direction. Examples being - some badly timed or inappropriate attempts at humour, horrible exposition from Sarah that is totally out of character. The things that made the first film great - the depth of characters, the dynamics, the subtle back-story and the ambiguity of the events in the caves as a metaphor for Sarahs madness were completely absent from the sequel. Yet, it copies pretty much everything else, the overhead car shots (which Harris also edited into Eden Lake), the David Julyan soundtrack (which is excellent, and not lived up to by the film this time round), the cave shots and the endless 'boo' moments of crawler attacks. They're simply not interesting anymore if you have already enjoyed the first movie.
The ending is simply horrible (not in a good way), completely incongruent and will infuriate many viewers. Its such a shame that the story wasn't developed into a new area into a film that could stand alone on its own two feet. You might think I'm being harsh on Jon Harris, the director, but I am honestly getting tired of first time directors messing up great opportunities for film-making.
Fans of the first film really deserved better than this. Anytime a movie is sent directly to home viewing, I know it's a bad sign. Yet, since this was the sequel to one of my favorite horror movies in the last ten years, I wanted to give it a shot.
I want that hour and a half of my life back. Though the basic premise behind the plot, a crew going into the caves on a rescue mission, could have worked, the execution was terrible. There is no way Sarah should have or would have been dragged back into the caves when she was near hysterics.
The sheriff was the BIGGEST idiot I have seen in a long time and the incompetence of his decisions completely took away my interest completely. The other characters and their actors were mostly passable. However, most of the scares were recycled, then watered down from the first movie, save for one scene involving a rat (which is why the movie was given a 2 and not a 1). The third act was outright terrible, even taking plot points from the first movie and butchering them.
Juno should not have survived the first film, but if she did, Sarah tried to finish her off. There's no way they should patch things up so quickly. The final fight was a lesser version of the original's. And 'SPOILER' the old man's actions at the end of the movie made NO SENSE. It seemed as though it were a lame attempt to add a Shyamalan twist, which itself is very tiresome and boring now. This is a film that seemed not only terrible compared to the first movie, but went so far as to take away good parts from the original. If you want a great movie, watch the first Descent and skip over this film.
In fact, if you see a copy of this version, destroy it. EPIC FAILURE.
An experienced rescue team composed by Dan (Douglas Hodge), Greg (Joshua Dallas) and Cath (Anna Skellern) is trying to locate the six women in the caves of the Appalachian Mountains. Meanwhile Sarah (Shauna Macdonald) is found wounded, covered with blood, in shock and amnesic by a truck driver and brought to the Hyett County Hospital. Sheriff Vaines (Gavan O'Herlihy) suspects that Sarah has killed her friends and forces her to return to the Boreham Caves together with his Deputy Rios (Krysten Cummings) and the rescue team. They search deeper and deeper in the caves but when Sarah recovers her memory, she panics and Sheriff Vaines shoots, provoking a cave-in. The trapped group sooner faces the hunger and savage breed of predators while trying to find a way out. 'The Descent' is a scary, claustrophobic, tense and gore story, and a psychological study of the characters under a huge condition of stress, deteriorating the relationship among them.
Unfortunately 'The Descent: Part 2' is a stupid sequel of a good story that could have worked. However, Sheriff Vaines is an imbecile character and his stupid attitudes, taking Sarah that is wounded and in shock to return to the underground, shooting in the cave and cuffing Sarah in a tense moment, are so absurd that ruin the plot. The terrible conclusion with the intention to give a hook to a sequel (or prequel, since the creatures might be relatives of the old man and other families of miners) is awful. The best line is the moment when Sarah tells Rios that 'it is just the mind playing tricks on you'. My vote is five. Title (Brazil): 'Abismo do Medo 2' ('Abyss of the Fear 2'). I'm sure this will be the general feel from the majority of reviews but I've got to say that the Descent part 2 is just what you should expect; Similar character development but less of; Similar direction/cinematography but less of; Similar jumpy frights but less of; Similar gore but less of; Similar crawlers but less of; Similar fun but less of.
However, for a £3.5m budget, 1st time director and not much room to manoeuvre with the script it's definitely an enjoyable Friday night flick worth investing in. Hey guys it's a sequel and with few exceptions (which I'm sure are discussed ad nauseum on IMDb notice boards) sequels at best are watered down versions of the originals. Not as good as 'The Descent' but certainly better than Mr. Marshall's 'Doomsday'.
Somehow, they've managed to crap all over the mystery and wonder of the first film. I wouldn't have thought that possible, but here's two hours worth of what basically amounts to the same movie with different angles. There's a fine line between horror and annoyance, and the difference is evident between the original film and this sequel. The first had some great character development, witty dialogue, an intriguing plot. All of those things have been substituted for B-movie versions of same.
Huge plot holes, impossible scenarios, expositional dialogue, and an ending that makes both films seem pointless. Don't even get me started on why there is light in some of the caves deep underground. The original Descent movie is one of my favourite horror films, so I was really looking forward to feasting my eyes on the second part. To be fair, I wasn't expecting anything near as what the original movie offered.
The Descent: Part 2 follows Sarah, the sole escapee of the cave in the first movie. She has amnesia and despite this she is questioned by police regarding the whereabouts of her friends. She then gets forced back down into the cave with a new team so they can discover what went on down there. The film follows on right after the ending of the American version of the movie which wasn't really to my liking, partly as it's a British horror movie and also because the British ending of The Descent is so much better.
I was pleasantly surprised though, despite ridiculing the movie literally from start to finish by comparing it to the original (well I was watching it with friends). As a stand-alone movie this is a pretty good one. There were a few scenes just too similar to the original movie and some where just plain ridiculous, but in a good way if that makes sense. The death scenes and the moments building towards them were executed brilliantly. Director Jon Harris executes eerie and scary suspense perfectly, pulling you into the scene in question. Furthermore, the scenes from the first movie are recreated perfectly so much so that you'd swear this movie was made at the same time as the original. It's nowhere near as good as the original, but a surprisingly good sequel.
Plot-holes and revealing mistakes aside, it's good fun, but don't be surprised if you're raising your eyebrow at the ending. In the first The Descent movie, where Sarah was the only survival of a caving expedition, Neil Marshall (director and writer) chose to keep the ending open to different interpretations of the real cause of what happened. For me it is that open end that gave an added value to the first episode. Unfortunately someone, probably commercialism and money, decided to create a sequel. In any sequel the storyline is simplified to a brainless horror movie with a fairly guessable storyline.
There is also nothing to say about good acting or the development of characters. If you have seen The Descent this sequel is certainly not worth it.
But if you want to see a brainless horror with some jump-scenes it is acceptable. A Sheriff suspects that Sarah has killed her friends and forces her to return to the caves with a rescue team. Even after the UK ending of The Descent, Sarah still manages to get out but is forced back to the uncharted underground to help locate her five missing companions. I'll try not reminisce over the amazing first film, there appears to be some mixed comments on The Decent: Part 2. If you did like The Descent, for the record the follow up even with the tantalising story setup it is sadly a huge disappointment. Surprisingly the excellent editor Jon Harris gives a poor directorial debut.
Even with some of the strong original cast including Shauna Macdonald and Natalie Mendoza, they simply can't save J Blakeson and James McCarthy poor screenplay. On board is Eden Lake's writer James Watkins and support from cinematographer Sam McCurdy (The Descent, Dog Soldiers, Doomsday to name a few). It feels and looks like a poor mans interpretation of the Descent, it's not a straight to video production but its almost there, awful dialogue, little if any character development, no suspense and poorly executed scares and that's just touching the surface. The film looks rushed, the lighting, sets, sound, direction, everything on screen looks cheap and nasty.
It lacks the grittiness of the first and the Crawler's don't look as menacing or a realistic. It is only worth watching to see how film with such great talent can go so wrong.
First of all, I am a huge fan of the first Descent. I felt the concept was a fairly new one, and the dark, claustrophobic caves combined with the awesome, original creatures resulted in a totally scary thrill ride!
Descent 2 is still creepy, but the creatures look more human (why would they change that?) and, I know this is a really bizarre detail to notice, the blood looks less realistic. It is too bright, and too orange-red.
A weird thing to turn me off of a scary movie, but any true fan of the horror genre knows that if the blood looks fake, it just isn't as scary. There are still some frightening moments. Don't get me wrong. But is it as scary and as gory as the first one? No, not at all.
The sequel takes place almost as soon as the second one finished. Sarah's safe in a hospital, but she's suffering from a slight case of amnesia (why else would she go back into the caves ugh). Well, there's a rough n' tough cop on the case of finding these young lasses, and he's bound to get to the bottom of it. There was a very quick side-plot in the beginning revolving around another group of people but it happened so fast I didn't even catch it. The bottom line is, Sarah and crew are heading back into the caves. The Descent was a total blast of a first view for me.
I was luckily enough to grab a region 2 DVD before it became all popular, so I was basically blown away by this horror flick that came out of nowhere. It had a simple and fun story, had good enough writing, and it delivered a fantastic atmosphere. And the creatures were pretty cool too. It was just a great lil surprise of a flick that delivered much more than it ought to. So why on Earth did this movie fall so damn flat?
The Descent part Deux completely felt like some type of rush-rush, let's cash in on the success of the first one type of deal. Gone is the surprise factor of the creatures. The likable characters that you cared about are slim-pickings as there was only one that I had a shred of feeling towards. The mystique of the cave is gone as well. What we have here is basically just an excuse to show off the monsters, add more blood (ain't a bad thing) and toss in as many jump scares as possible. And damn, the jump scares. Everyone likes a well-played jump scare that is actually scary.
But the ones we have in this flick are bottom of the barrel. They are beyond predictable, so much so, that it's possible to literally count them down.
For example, there's more than one scene where the camera is slowly zooming into blackness well, no sh!t something scary is about to pop in our faces. Because of how utterly predictable they were, I was able to count them all. I won't give you the exact number but it was somewhere between nine and eleven of them. Being such a fan of the first one, I was really disappointed here. Besides a few choices scene of nice splattery gore and poop, and one scene of pure claustrophobic tension that actually got me, there's nothing to write home about. Instead of focusing on the jump scares, and the screaming of these freak bat-people (I've come to the conclusion they are bat-people), they should have focused on the cave, the darkness and a feeling of helplessness. What we're given instead is a sort of action/horror flick that's low on creativity and high on predictability.
The bottom line is that it's a very average movie that will disappoint more than it will entertain. I once again feel impelled to add my two ha'pence worth, if only to bring down the average score of an atrocious film artificially boosted by mercenary lobbyists (or maybe that should be 'interested parties'; perhaps it's the director's immediate family who have been pressed into penning glowing reviews). The best I can say about this film is that at least it didn't take an hour and a half out of my life as I fairly quickly saw what was in store and watched most of it in fast forward. The film is both objectively and subjectively garbage, and anyone who sings its praises must be used to eating spoonfuls of excrement and claiming it tastes of vanilla ice cream. If you liked the first movie ('The Decent'), then you will most definitely like part two.
In fact, you HAVE to watch it, as the sequel picks up right where the first one ended, and sort of comes full circle when it ends. Again, descending into the dark caverns beneath our safe and sound 'surface' world, The Descent 2 is another foray into the dark subterranean world beneath ours. As with part 1, the scenery here is dark and creepy, giving you a sense of claustrophobia and paranoia. It was good to see some return of characters from part 1. The cast for part 2 was equally good, just as it was in part 1. Everyone here did a really good job at bringing their characters to life on screen, even the ones with small supporting roles. The Descent 2 is a thrill ride from start to end, just like part 1 was.
There are a couple of scenes that will make you jump, but no major frights. But of course, that is not the intention here. They pulled it off again so well with the claustrophobia and constant paranoia and fear as the characters are hunted by the subterranean dwellers. As with part 1, the creatures were nicely put together, good make-up, good prosthetics, and very believable. This sequel is a MUST to watch for fans of the first Descent movie. In the wake of the terror she and her friends endured at the hands of the monstrous Crawlers during their spelunking trip in 'The Descent', Sarah Carter (Shauna Macdonald) miraculously emerges from the godforsaken caves bloody, distraught and at a complete loss of memory. As hard as he tries, local enforcer Roger Payne (Doug Ballard) can't elicit much more than a delusional mumble from her when he asks about the whereabouts of the remaining girls.
Recklessly, he decides to assemble a crack team of spelunkers to accompany Sarah back into the caves in a hope of jogging her memory and hopefully locating the other missing girls. As they venture deeper and deeper into the bleak, ominous depths of the caverns, Sarah gradually manages to recall the past horrors which befall upon her. But will it all be too late?
The heart of this film is a glorious, balls-to-the-wall creature feature with a shawl of beautiful stark atmosphere. The blood comes in gallons, the Crawlers are as disgustingly foul as ever and there is ample dread at every point of the grim, foreboding caverns.
Jon Harris' direction is fantastic, capturing the mood of claustrophobia perfectly. Also contributing to the brilliant sense of unease is the cast, who all convey isolation and fear with realism and deftly crafted trauma. All this is packed nice and taut with swift scripting and editing, ridding any notions of dullness which could potentially develop in the repetitive setting. Two of my favourite parts include the underwater segment and Cath being trapped amongst the boulders - both portray the utter anxiety of claustrophobia and physical isolation perfectly. The ending was also cool; I love me a hopeless, downbeat climax.
All in all, I dug the hell out this delightfully bleak creature feature. I highly recommend it.
THE DESCENT is the type of film that really didn't need a sequel. But with it's relative popularity-I wasn't the least bit surprised when one was announced. I really didn't know what to expect with THE DESCENT 2, and was honestly expecting the worst-but I'll admit that I was pleasantly surprised by this entertaining if not ground-breaking sequel. The film begins right after the first film ends. Sarah escapes the cave, is discovered by an old man on the road, and the taken to the hospital. Of course the local sheriff wants answers as to why she's the only one to return from the group of cavers, and what happened to the others.
The sheriff puts together a small team to investigate the caves with an amnesiac Sarah in tow. The rest of the film plays out much like the first with very little difference in style or approach. If you enjoyed the first one and don't mind a heavy dose of 're-tread'-then it's surprising to me if you don't like this one. There really isn't much to be brought in terms of originality to a storyline like this (unless you start getting into really retarded territory-like as one reviewer stated, 'flying crawlers' or some sh!t like that.)-so if they're going to force a sequel on the populace-then it may as well try to be as entertaining as the first, if not wholly original.
And i believe this film succeeded. The action is still pretty hot and heavy, it's just as, if not more gory than the first, there's a few good jump-scares, and although not quite as claustrophobic as the first-still some of that as well. The acting, cinematography, gore FX, and score/sound-design are all up to par and in some cases quite good-so I don't have much to bitch about. There are some inconsistencies, like: if these creatures are supposed to hear/smell so well, why can't they sense someone that's RIGHT in front of them?!?!-but for a film like this I prefer to just turn my brain of and go along for the ride. Again-very derivative of the first (the only real reason I'm rating it a point lower than the original.), but I feel it could have been a WHOLE lot worse. An interesting twist or two, and an obvious set-up for a third film round out what I consider to be a solid pop-corn horror film and a better-than- average sequel.
DescriptionDistraught, confused, and half-wild with fear, Sarah Carter emerges alone from the Appalachian cave system where she encountered unspeakable terrors. Unable to plausibly explain to the authorities what happened - or why she's covered in her friends' blood - Sarah is forced back to the subterranean depths to help locate her five missing companions. As the rescue party drives deeper into uncharted caverns, nightmarish visions of the recent past begin to haunt Sarah and she starts to realize the full horror and futility of the mission. Subjected to the suspicion and mistrust of the group and confronted once more by the inbred, feral and savagely ruthless Crawlers, Sarah must draw on all her inner reserves of strength and courage in a desperate final struggle for deliverance and redemption.
