If The Descent hit the spot, these will too

The same mix in both: dread, then unease
The difference: Trades the scale of The Descent for an angle of its own



Dread-soaked horror, and it commits to that

Both keep coming back to the same thing: gore

Adventure with a pulse of unease, in both cases

Neil Marshall directing both, with the same fingerprints on each
The difference: The critics' underdog of the pair

Both are built on the same subject: expedition
The difference: Leans harder into thriller than The Descent does

Both lean on scale more than on adventure
The difference: Sits closer to action than The Descent does

Both working the same horror territory
