Ep 88 - THE DESCENT (2005) AT 20 - CLAUSTROPHOBIC HORROR AT ITS FINEST!!
THE DESCENT (2005) d. Neil Marshall (UK) THE DESCENT PART 2 (2009) d. Jon Harris (UK) After a tragic accident, six friends reunite for a caving expedition, only to see their adventure go horribly wrong when a collapse traps them deep underground. Then, to make matters much, much worse, they find themselves pursued by bloodthirsty subterranean creatures. The Descent, written and directed by Neil Marshall (Dog Soldiers, Doomsday), is not only a well-made monster movie with strong female characters; it’s an undeniable masterwork of indie horror and suspense that combines genuine drama and relationships, an atmosphere of palpable dread, and an abundance of gore and jump scares. Plus, it may be the first underground horror film that really works, capitalizing on every claustrophobic opportunity. Grab your torches and carabiners and join AC and his amazing panel of guests (Katie McLean Hainsworth, Michael Klug, Kevin Matthews, Chris Scales, Mandy Walsh) as we celebrate 20 years of The Descent! --------------------------------------------------- KATIE MCLEAN HAINSWORTH is a Chicago-based performer/writer, whom you can regularly find on both the DARK NEXUS and FAWX & STALLION podcasts.

He is an actor, screenwriter, film critic, screenplay consultant, novelist, filmmaker and overall movie nerd, living in Los Angeles. Long live George A.
