Seriously, it was like a nightmare, just the whole way the movie played out. I am disturbed mentally by it, it was so profoundly brutal, jarring and surreal. The violence and the hopelessness of the movie was traumatizing...

YUP!
Disturbing was the word. Especially after I had already seen 'The Cave'...with Cole Hauser....same premise...expedition...cave...stranded...death...but truly inferior to 'The Descent' in every way....so I was totally unprepared...thinking it would be an awful clone of an awful movie...
Boy was I wrong. It tapped my vein in several ways...mostly with the authentic and quite believable friendship iof the women. Very interesting, haunting and moving piece of work...it was like watching "Desperate Housewives" meets "Lord of the Flies".
I loved the different ways the women dealt with the being lost and then paranoid that they would never see daylight again...and then being under seige by the secret of the cave. No aging males with small penis' over compensating for their geriatric slide towards the abyss...I am quite tired of what passes for 'action stars' today. this was very welll done...the movie took its time...building the story...the characters...and building the suspense...so when the second half of the movie began...I was totally immersed .
And the ending was just brutal...holding out the gift from the husband...they exchange looks...and now she knows what happened to her best friend...and the action she takes...
unbelievably human...bullseye.
That was an uncommon film. Saw2 and Hostel were unimpressive...pedestrian really...and I have no interest in seeing serial killers torturing backpackers in the Australian outback or nuclear families eating human flesh without washing their hands first. This film stayed with me for days after I watched it.
I agree...it was definitely like a nightmare.
Peace.

I've heard it spooked quite a few. I'd rather not live on demented. I've seen my share of scary movies. Signs was even too scary for me!
