Om denne film

One year after a tragic accident, six girlfriends meet in a remote part of the Appalachians for their annual caving trip. Deep below the surface of the earth, disaster strikes when a rock falls and blocks their route back to the surface. The group splinters and each one pushes on, praying for another exit. But there is something else lurking under the earth -- a race of monstrous humanoid creatures that have adapted perfectly to life in the dark. As the friends realize they are now prey, they are forced to unleash their most primal instincts in an all-out war against an unspeakable horror -- one that attacks without warning, again and again and again.

Marvelous work here. Incredibly good. Lots of scares and jumps. They are about to make a pathetic copy of this ... based in paris' catacombs the underground tunnels that sre supposed to be haunted. They literally do the same exact seen were the person is stuck and claustrophobic, the shoot it from the same angles ect. Rip off. If u want a good cave underground movie with suspense and terror. Watch this!

Will certainly make you hold your breath. Good chemistry between the characters. The logic of the characters is what pisses me off, if the one girl was actually a caver she would know the dangers of exploring a new cave especially with inexperienced people

BEFORE YOU BUY OR RENT THIS...be forewarned that the screenwriter, Neil Marshall, badly truncated the logic behind why these people went into a cave and deliberately did not leave a "flight plan" with authorities before they went so they could be could be rescued if they didn't surface as planned. Marshall also did not logically qualify these spelunkers for the challenge of the descent. The whole thing just wasn't plausible. Paradoxically, the existence of those creatures the spelunkers encountered deep in the cave system was believable. But the easy part, preparing the viewer for the rationale for the adventure to begin with, was just kinda blown off. For me, this ruined the whole thing. I seriously considered not finishing the movie because I was never able to suspend belief, which you must do to make any movie entertaining.
