Caroline L One of the best horror films i've seen (and i've seen a LOT). Great acting, great directing, a soundtrack that support all play/action. A very acute reading of the human psychee. It's one of the few movies that are a "must-see in dark" to enhance the experience and event if one isn't claustrophobic upon watching it, one will definitely be by the end of the film. The open end was of course the best indicator of an eventual sequel but it is first and foremost what gives this film its salt. What happens at the ending is your guess/will and while this often is used as a lazy (and often lousy) way out it is not the case here. Years later, this is still one of my top horror films and if you haven't seen it yet, brace yourself and watch it lights off. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/31/24 Full Review Thoki and Nathan M Immaculate acting and claustrophobicly terrifying. One of the best horror movies ever made. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/15/24 Full Review Sarah G I really appreciated the first quarter of this movie, which I think was executed beautifully. However, I think the last 3/4ths would have been even better with a different direction. The monster you don't see is worse than the one you can. Take advantage of the cave setting!! I don't even want to talk about the last 15 minutes. Severe lack of organization and thought there. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/06/24 Full Review Craig B This is truly one of the creepiest movies you will ever see. Fantastic all female cast, a terrific storyline and so many atmospheric and terrifying scenes. A must watch for fans of creature-centric horror.... and don't forget the equally riveting sequel. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/26/24 Full Review Emmanuel L I don't understand the ratting of this movie... Ok it's not "bad" but seriously, these classic and originally absurd creatures didn't help me get into it. The idea of ​​the 6 adventurous women was good at first but their emotional construction is very caricatured. The main character goes from "broken by life" to total badass in less than 5 minutes The sets are clean but limited, there was a way to offer a more impressive supporting environment and finally it remained on a classic ground without scope. Without blowing the budget there was a way to make a film with more scope and depth. In the end the existing opinions seem unfounded to me or the film has aged very badly Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/23/24 Full Review Terry H Descent is one of the last great thriller movies. The director relied on more than just jump scares to make it suspenseful, the acting was overall good, and the premise was inherintly creepy.
