The Big Picture Ever want to scare the pants off of somebody but don’t know what horror film will do it best? When it comes to horror, many different aspects of the genre can create both fear and tension for a viewer. Sometimes it’s paranormal, sometimes it’s cheesy slasher films, or maybe it’s cheap jump-scares. These are always a tried and true staple. But when it comes to really scaring an audience, really getting under their skin, there’s one movie that does it best: The Descent.

Release Date August 4, 2006 Director Neil Marshall Cast Shauna Macdonald , Natalie Jackson Mendoza , Alex Reid , Saskia Mulder , MyAnna Buring , Nora-Jane Noone Runtime 99 minutes Main Genre Horror Writers Neil Marshall Studio Lionsgate Tagline Face Your Deepest Fear Expand What Is 'The Descent' About? The movie begins by introducing us to a few of the characters we’ll be following throughout the film. There’s Sarah , Juno , and Beth .

Claustrophobia is one of the most common fears among humans — it’s the fear of small or enclosed spaces. The Descent is basically just Claustrophobia: The Movie, and though we obviously know the caves featured in the film are just sets, they feel far too real. The result is a suffocating, horrifying, hopeless ride of terror that just never seems to let up. Even when there isn’t a cave monster on screen, we still have to watch our heroines navigate a seemingly hopeless situation.
