THE DESCENT..........a rolling commentary............



Tonight i'm watching THE DESCENT.................i enjoyed the revenge flick HOSTEL....if you're not familiar with the plot of HOSTEL, it's kinda like the great American vacation version of SAW in Europe......with discos.............in this flick, they've reversed the field a bit by having a bunch of cave divers,who happen to be chick Europeans tackling caves in THE APPALACHIANS in the southeastern mountains of America...........GUESS WHO'S gonna win THIS FIGHT..............i have learned thrill seeking friends who're part hippie/part punk/part metal-head who regularly dive caves in the southeast..............to a man they each give the caves around here a metric ton more respect...........the caves here are SCARY dangerous all by themselves........and that's without the possibility of crazy cave mutant monsters..........that's all i'm sayin.........

How come none of these Brit bitches have any liquor?.........they're gonna NEED it............and how come they keep losing their accents?...........and when's the last time you saw a gang of chicks dive a cave?...........shit never happens..........

Their reticence at the beginning of the actual descent tells me all i need to know..........if you announce "Oh my God, I'm gonna die" at the beginning of the flick, you're officially FUCKED..............

RULE NO. 2 of cave diving.........if you're scared out of your panties by a cloud of bats..............YOU'RE OFFICIALLY FUCKED.............

and why in the fuck would anyone believe a group of all girls would dive a cave?..........i'm not sexist, i'm just sayin'.............

yep, they're fucked..........this is fun............

i gotta pee..........break time............somehow i'm thinking this movie is gonna kick ass despite some very obvious flaws.........the best B horror flicks always do.......

the question now is.........which bitch will be the first one to die.............

somehow i think this chick that's squirreled into a hole is gonna find the first dead body.........

"Sarah you have to calm down......just breathe"...........

"It hasn't got a name(the cave system), it's a new system"..........these chicks are fucked..........this is great...........welcome to the real underbelly of the South,folks..........

showin their grit now...........realizing the "gravity" of the situation now........using those rock climbing skills to traverse a gap.........holy shit,these girls are fucked.......bet they wished they had one of my cave diver friends with them right now............

inuries now..........yep, they're fucked.......they're finding old gear from other climbers.......welcome to THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE...........

imma quit blogging now...........the outcome is not worth the payoff......watch the movie............

I wish this movie had been scarier. Specially the monsters, they looked kinda silly to me. I like it when a movie really scares me, like, chills me down to my bones...

STAK said...

agreed...........i love horror movies........but ever since THE EXORCIST came out, the bar seems a bit too high for the movie industry.......

I'm not sure why this movie scared me as much as it did. I usually hate movies with the lame monster that makes the lame monster noises, but I jumped out of my seat a few times with this one.

sounds good.

If you like being scared you should try and get your hands on a copy of Wolf Creek.(It's Australian - so I don't know whether it's available in the States?) It really is scary. Really.

(the ending is a bit disappointing though - but its still definitely worth watching)

rebecca-actually, i think i saw that on Netflix............i'll have to look into it..........

oh and Mist-upon a second viewing, the movie made me jump several times as well........and my original commentary isn't all that accurate.......although it does look like they tried to pass off a mountain range in Europe as the Appalachians.......
