The Descent
The Descent is a 2005 British horror film written and directed by Neil Marshall. The film follows six women who, having entered a cave system, struggle to survive against the creatures inside.
Filming took place in the United Kingdom. Exterior scenes were filmed at Ashridge Park, Hertfordshire and in Scotland. Because the filmmakers considered it too dangerous and time-consuming to shoot in an actual cave, interior scenes were filmed on sets built at Pinewood Studios near London designed by Simon Bowles.
The Descent opened in theaters in the United Kingdom on 8 July 2005. It premiered in the 2006 Sundance Film Festival and released on 4 August 2006 in the United States. The film received critical acclaim and was a box-office success, grossing $57.1 million against a £3.5 million budget.
A sequel, titled The Descent Part 2, directed by the first film's editor Jon Harris, was released in 2009.
Production: Lionsgate
8 wins & 18 nominations.
