La cueva

I think in general terms this was a great flick, a very realistic story that begin in a high spirit note straigth to desperation and pure madness, Great acting, I strongly recomend.

The film sticks to typical character stereotypes, like you'd expect from any low-budget movie built around a single premise - in this case, five friends getting lost in a cave. The storytelling and character arcs don't bring anything new and rely heavily on familiar formulas. That also makes the jump scares quite predictable, always showing up exactly where you'd expect them.

However, the film does manage to create some tense and gripping moments, especially when it explores psychological pressure, fear of death, and how people mentally break down in extreme situations. These themes add depth to an otherwise conventional plot.

One thing that always bothers me personally - and this film is no exception - is when friend groups already feel unrealistic during the introduction phase. There's little believable chemistry or genuine connection between them, which makes you wonder as a viewer, 'Why are you even friends if you treat each other like this?'

That said, the ending was satisfying and wrapped things up in a way that felt earned. Also, the choice to use a found footage style was a smart one. It fit the theme very well and added to the intensity and realism of the story.

A group of five friends are on vacation and they explore a cave. However, they become lost inside, and they must do whatever it takes to survive. This movie shows the grittiness and realism of what can happen if you go into an unexplored and unused cave system. I guess this is like a realistic version of The Decent, but instead of showing trained spelunkers and cave-dwelling monsters, it shows how sadistic people can be when their need to survive outweighs all else. This is filmed mostly through a camcorder.

This movie is entirely in Spanish. I do not speak Spanish very well - I picked up a word here and there - but it was easy enough to follow what was going on. I'm hoping they'll release a dubbed version or at least a version with subtitles. Still, you can catch what's happening without that, though I'm not quite certain how the people became lost; perhaps that was mentioned in the dialogue. There are a few jumps in this, which is usually rare for these types of movies, so that was a welcome surprise.

I gave this a 7-star rating because the acting was very good, especially Marta Castellote. The sets were also cool. The filming, as I said earlier, was done via camcorder, so take that how you want. There is a lot of nudity in the beginning; they have full-frontal of a woman and a man. The storyline wasn't very original, but the movie was executed in a very realistic way. There are NO special effects of any kind. Really, the film didn't need them. If you're looking for a creature feature with special effects and such, watch The Decent. If you're looking for realism, watch this. I recommend it.

Shot in a 90% Found Footage style, this film goes from being a fun mood trip of 5 friends to becoming absolutely insane and terrifying towards the end. The story is plain simple but execution is top class.

This movie seems to be very nice for me cause it's a horror movie without ghost or anything if you like to watch cave videos this movie makes you feel better. Language is not a barrier for this movie just enjoy & explore some cave. Rip : John Jones
