Crap Con. above probably frequents Michael Jackson's fun house. This movie was pretty decent, unlike that p.o.s. The Cave which was an over-produced pile of ass that doesn't deserve to be called a horror movie. The camera work was interesting and I'll agree a bit like The Blair Witch, but interesting nonetheless. The director definitely conveys a sense of tension and paced the movie quite well, since there is rarely a slow moment. The ending was interesting though I don't think it was the best "explanation". Don't get me wrong, this movie is well worth watching. It is one of the better horror movies I've seen this year. The gore effects have to be in homage to the early works of Peter Jackson, even the foley sound effects are reminiscent of Bad Taste/Dead Alive.

It seems there have a been a handful of cave movies in the horror genre in the past year. The Cave is by far the worst of them - you'd be better off watching The Boogens while sitting on the lap of a felon. The Cavern is damn good though it lacks in a few areas. The Descent is by far the best of these movies even though it starts off really slow.
