The Descent: Part 2


THE DESCENT: PART 2 (2009) - May 8, 2010
Well, that was a pleasant surprise.  Though not quite on the same level as the first film, it's actually kind of close.  About the rescue team that goes in to attempt to rescue the missing girls from the first film -- including the sole survivor, who has amnesia and thus has no memory of the horrors that lie within.  The movie is quite well directed by Jon Harris, who does an admirable job of replicating the claustrophobic feel of the original, and who is able to maintain a fairly good level of tension throughout.  This was definitely a lot better than I was expecting.  ***1/2
