Very scary horror flick that is a bloodbath of mayhem with so much tension it keep your eyes all wide focused. Cast is actually pretty good.
I’d like to think it wasn’t the monsters but the claustrophobia that got to me more. Being lost in a dark cave is scary enough
One of the scariest horror movies I’ve seen. The sense of hopelessness and claustrophobia throughout are spot-on.
Fantastic horror film. Really builds the suspense in the beginning. Uses lighting to its advantage. Will leave you with claustrophobia.
A claustrophobic Rorschach test with great effects and music. Tasty
Cool monsters and fun fight scenes, but it took a while to get going and pitting the characters against each other was unnecessary.
Just don’t ever go into a cave for any reason ever. It’s not fucking worth it.
Great Horror Flick! Visceral, Tense & Creepy.....9/10
Lots of familiar horror tropes here but with a terrifying premise and some great execution
One of the scariest movies I've ever watched.

After a personal tragedy, Sarah joins her friends on a caving expedition in the Appalachian Mountains. But when a rockfall traps them deep underground, their adventure turns into a nightmare. As they search for a way out, the group discovers they are not alone—lurking in the darkness are savage, cave-dwelling creatures. With rising tension and dwindling trust, the women must fight to survive against both the predators and each other.
Distraught, confused, and half-wild with fear, Sarah Carter emerges alone from the Appalachian cave system where she encountered unspeakable terrors. Unable to plausibly explain to the authorities what happened - or why she's covered in her friends' blood - Sarah is forced back to the subterranean depths to help locate her five missing companions.
