Distraught, confused, and half-wild with fear, Sarah Carter emerges alone from the Appalachian cave system where she encountered unspeakable terrors. Unable to plausibly explain to the authorities what happened - or why she's covered in her friends' blood - Sarah is forced back to the subterranean depths to help locate her five missing companions. As the rescue party drives deeper into uncharted caverns, nightmarish visions of the recent past begin to haunt Sarah and she starts to realize the full horror and futility of the mission. Subjected to the suspicion and mistrust of the group and confronted once more by the inbred, feral and savagely ruthless Crawlers, Sarah must draw on all her inner reserves of strength and courage in a desperate final struggle for deliverance and redemption.

With its back-and-forth plot pointing, illogical leaps in pragmatic believability, and a finale that flips a big fat middle finger at anyone who invested 90 minutes in this junk, The Descent 2 cannot hold a miner's candle to the original.February 09, 2011
Thank the sequel for underscoring, in its devastating mediocrity, just how great and special the original was to start with.November 11, 2010
Doesn't come close to the original, but still manages to entertain.December 04, 2009
Harris's direction is messy, favouring confusing set-piece scares over the all-important group dynamics.April 30, 2010
By the standards set up by its predecessor, it's a letdown, but by the overall standards of horror sequels, it's a complete success.December 08, 2009
A claustrophobic, creepy popcorn flick that compensates for predictable scares with deliciously disgusting moments involving a whole spectrum of bodily fluids.December 04, 2009
An uninspired retread of a horror classic, this tries hard to justify its existence... and fails.April 15, 2010
You won't be missing anything spectacular if you don't catch The Descent: Part 2, for horror fans and those who enjoyed the original, however, it's definitely worth a go.April 22, 2010
No one expected 'Part 2' to rival the original, but it delivers a fair number of scares while replicating the eerie tension from the first film.December 04, 2009
It delivers the goods as they say. A third film is surely on the cards, no doubt in 3D. But in order to retain any good will, this series is going to have to do the one thing our Crawler friends have demonstrably failed to do. Evolve.May 17, 2009
As popcorn entertainment, it delivers, and should satisfy fans on all platforms.April 27, 2010
You can practically see the film trying to "color between the lines" laid down in the first film, but there's just enough freshness to keep Part 2 chugging along.
