The Descent: 4

I haven't seen the other two, but I will now, given these superb scores. I have a bias against modern horror and usually don't see any of it until I hear from credible sources that it's good.

Make sure to watch the French language versions with English subtitles, as the dubbed versions are really distracting. I've seen both the French and English dubbed versions of each.

Thanks for the tip! Looks like amazon has Martyrs on dvd for $5. Looking forward to it!

Me too, I'm looking forward to seeing these. I wish I would have seen The Decent instead of The Cave.

It's painfully bad in parts. Be a good MST2k film.

I, personally, would not say it "sucked". I would not say it was good either. To me, it was pure entertainment. It seemed like a bad ripoff of the Descent, but the strange thing is that, if I remember correctly, they both came out around the same time. To be honest, I did not know it was that known. I just picked it up from a pawn shop for a couple bucks (or so) a couple years ago with the thought that I would just watch it to see what it was. At the time, I did not know anything about The Descent, which I saw a few months to a year ago (from my perspective today). Speaking of which, I really enjoyed The Descent, it was a real masterpiece, in my opinion. One of the twenty best horror movies of the past decade and it had a surprising beginning AND ending. I did have trouble keeping track of the characters, they kind of looked pretty similar to me. Anyway, The Descent was a great movie all-around, while The Cave was merely so-so, in my opinion.
