Read the signs

Advantages: Original
Disadvantages: Plots can be a bit confusing

I don't own this dvd but i do have this film on video. I have read many reviews saying that this film is a load of shit but i actually thought it was quite good. Written and directed by Jean-Baptiste Andrea and Fabrice Canepa, this film was released late 2003. It crosses many genres such as horror, mystery and comedy. Plot: Frank Harrington is driving his family to his mother-in-law's for Christmas. For the past 20 years he has always took the ...
...The road he ends up on seems to go on forever. There are woods on either side but they just seem to lead back on to the road. He passes the same signs over and over again. The family encounter a woman dressed in white clutching a pile of blankets in which is her baby. When she's asked how the baby is going to breathe under them, she replies "my baby's already dead". Frank and his family are going mental. The woman disappears and a mysterious carriage ...

PMS Can Be A Devil

Advantages: Disturbing, chilling atmosphere
Disadvantages: Not all it's cracked up to be; terrible special effects, some laughable bits

...beginning to drastically differ from the sweet young girl she once was. When doctors examine Regan they find that she turns violent and screams profanities at them which she has never done before. Doctors decide that a physiatrist may be the best option for Regan, but when all else fails Regan’s Mother is forced to turn to the church… I wasn’t around when The Exorcist was first released back in 1973 but have heard numerous things about the film ...
...to watch the film but have always been hesitant due to all the harrowing things I’ve heard about it. The film has been named ‘The Scariest Film Of All Time’… fitting? I still don’t know. I have heard about people committing suicide after seeing the film but curiosity got the better of me and surely 36 years after it’s initial release the film wouldn’t be able to achieve the same shock factor would it? That I can’t effectively answer, after seeing ...

Gory, gritty and deliciously fun, a worthy sequel to the original

Advantages: Gritty, suspenseful and jumpy - a solid horror
Disadvantages: Ridiculous plot lines in places, a little too gory on occasions

...on a regular basis with the pap often served up by Hollywood of late, both myself and my friend went to see the first Descent film without much expectation and with only the merest of hope we may at least get the odd nervous jump and maybe a quiet giggle at what will probably be another big busted beauty running around in her well-matched knickers. We were very wrong, the original film was gritty, well-shot and was, in our opinion, one of the best ...
...they were going to follow the original film on as it had left our feisty protagonist in a rather inescapable position, however, within the first few minutes of the film we see her again – bloody but free from the cavern of terror that had claimed so many of her friends. With suspicions running high as to the fate of the young women, and with Sarah's memory a complete blank, she is coerced into returning to the caves to assist with the rescue mission ...
