Okay, just came back from The Descent. In a nutshell, bunch of girls go potholing, horror ensues. Classic setting for a horror movie (and it helped seeing it at a small screen at the Cameo), and by the writer/director of Dog Soldiers, Neil Marshall, so if you like horror it's worth watching.
I don't want to give too much away... The film is both subtle and oh-so-unsubtle, but when it comes down to it it's a decent atmospheric horror flick. I'd watch it again.
Apparently The Cave is coming out next month, seemingly the alternate big-budget cave-diving alternative. Presumably tamer and generally standard Hollywood fare, although I may well see it anyway. I'm guessing that if I see it, I'll say watch The Descent instead
.
Happy spelunking.
