Some critic compared this movie to Alien. They must have been like nineteen or something. While having a long way to go to be worthy of that comparison The Descent is just near perfect enough to be truly frustrating and disappointing to genuine horror fans. Lots of shock moments, too many really. And the different elements of the film remain somewhat choppy despite excellent chemistry with the cast. It's worth your money to see in the theater. You will be scared. The whole comparison to Alien just ruined it for me though really. Instead of focusing on how good it was, my entire experience with it remains focused on how good it could have been.
OK what do you get if you cross Conan the Barbarian with Star Wars with the end of the world? Thundarr the Barbarian, that's what. OK, so like... guys come on. This show was like the most awesome concept of it's time if not of the last thirty years. So what if it had to be sold as Saturday morning tripe for eight year olds... IT ROCKED and still does. I was only like three or four years old when I saw this show for the first time and I remember watching it religiously. My Saturday mornings were not complete if I did not get to see Thundarr kick some butt. I am just now getting around to re-collecting (ie downloading) shows. The owner's are kinda of dumb not to release it on DVD... they would absolutely make a lot of money. More over... they should re-create the show and get the franchise rolling. Thundarr will be just as good in near-apocalyptic 2005 as it was in near-apocalyptic 1980. Well, they might have to change the cataclysm from 1994 to like a later date... but I'm sure they they can figure it out in another time traveling episode or something. And if not that.. movie rights guys? Hello... every comic book and lame super hero is being turned into a live action film these days...
