The Descent

Shauna Macdonald, Natalie Mendoza (2005) Women on a caving expedition encounter ravenous underground predators that would love to sink their teeth into fresh meat.

SciFi Saturday movie from 5/9.

I was originally thinking that one of my college roommates saw some stuff on ebay that was climbing gear used in this movie. However, on further review, I think it was actually from the movie "The Cave", which seems to have a very similar plot and setting. Only this one involves British women, and the other one seems to involve all sorts of people.

So, sadly, I have nothing actually interesting to report...

You know what's a rather bad thing about movies that take place in caves? The fact that caves are generally rather poorly lit places. Which makes it rather hard for the director to accurately and clearly portray what's going on.

And for some reason, even though they're all in tank-tops, they have ice axes. Seems like those 2 things are rather incongruous.

This is a typical horror movie in a cave. Girls go into cave. Girls get attacked by monsters. Girls fight back, but are largely unsuccessful. One survives.

One major difference from your general bad SciFi movie, though. A distinct lack of boobies. I guess, since there are no male characters, the director/writer/whoever decided that there was no just cause for the female characters to get nekkid.
