JUMP SCARE!!!!!!!

Director: "Brilliant! Now lets keep doing that and we'll have a movie on our hands!"

... seriously, I would love to see this film's screenplay. I imagine it looking just like the above but on repeat, for every 2 minutes, of the entire script, until literally the very last scene. The writing is that bad.

And that plot 'reveal', how the fuck is that possible? And what reason did that dude have to handcuff himself to the girl? And why do these idiots start talking not even a second after a mutant --who relies only on sound-- walks away? And did these cops…

Part of the 31 Days of Horror

This is the very definition of a sequel that should never have been made. The first Descent had, in my opinion, a near perfect conclusion. This film does everything in its power to ruin that. As a film, this is bad; as a sequel, this is horrible. In no way does this capture the spirit of the original; it's more of an action film than a horror film, and not even an enjoyable action film. There is no suspense, no mystery, the creatures are now more lumbering brutes than stealthy creatures of darkness. And as an action film now, it is important that you see everything. That means, that even though we are…

What sort of bollocks *is* this? The exact type you'd expect from a greedy American funded sequel that has no right to exist. What's more, it steals key moments from the first film and tries to use them as its own, as well as shamelessly ripping off direct scares (that were effective) and woefully transforms them into lazy, predictable jumps. It uses the same chilling score and cheapens it. Harris uses THE EXACT same shots and set ups for numerous scenes, too.

All they've tried to do is recreate the brilliance of the first film, yet have failed miserably. The blood looks like watered down ketchup, the scares aren't scary and the gratuity is its only way to compensate for…

I never expected The Descent: Part 2 to be as good as the original; it was a film that never needed a sequel in the first place. The Descent is one of my favorite horror films - and unquestionably one of the best of the decade. I really wasn't expecting much out of the sequel, but it did get some decent reviews so I decided that I needed to pick it up on its release date. Despite the fact that at times it desperately tries to be exactly like the original, there are a few parts that help the film stand out. I can see certain scenes toward the end of The Descent: Part 2 ruining the emotional impact of…

Follows on immediately after the first film with the American ending Sarah covered in blood is discovered by a park ranger, unfortunately she's got amnesia so is little help to the search effort . The local sheriff and the cave rescue team take her back into the caves where they found her to jog her memory. They soon find themselves trapped in the caves along with the 'things' that inhabit them and must find a way to escape....

The first film was pretty effective, sure it was typical jump-shocks in the dark but, dammit, it still worked on me. Here we get more of the same and it's still working on me It does get very predictable with you being…

wait for it....
