A bone-chilling thrill ride for claustrophobes and gorehounds alike, The Frida Cinema is proud to present Neil Marshall’s The Descent–celebrating 20 years since its initial release! If you’ve never had the privilege of seeing this film on the big screen with a crowd, now is the bloody time!
After a personal tragedy, Sarah joins her friends on a caving expedition in the Appalachian Mountains. But when a rockfall traps them deep underground, their adventure turns into a nightmare. As they search for a way out, the group discovers they are not alone—lurking in the darkness are savage, cave-dwelling creatures. With rising tension and dwindling trust, the women must fight to survive against both the predators and each other.
One of the most acclaimed horror films of the 2000s, The Descent traps audiences in a suffocating nightmare of pitch-black corridors, mixing raw survival drama with bursts of savage violence. No spoilers!
