The Descent - Discesa nelle tenebre (2005)
Sei amiche si incontrano come sempre ogni anno, per un'avventura sotterranea nelle viscere della terra. Il gruppo si fa strada attraverso un percorso già esplorato, godendosi gli splendidi paesaggi sotterranei. Ma in profondità le aspetta una tragedia: il percorso che stanno seguendo, dietro di loro viene bloccato da una frana di massi, e non possono più tornare indietro. Quando le ragazze si rendono conto che Juno, una del loro gruppo, la più "azzardata" le ha condotte per un percorso inesplorato, il panico cresce a dismisura perché capiscono che nessuno potrebbe venirle a cercare laggiù. E qualcosa nel buio, le osserva.
Direttore: Neil Marshall
