Arrow The Descent.

Just saw this movie on DVD. My colleagues said it was one of the scariest movies ever, and movie goers even screamed out loud and stuff. I wasn't scared one bit, though I found the movie interesting and semi-exciting.

Those who've seen it, scary?

i thought it was great - i wouldnt say i was "scared" because after all its a movie so it shouldnt really make you feel "scared" but if i was in that situation then hell yeh i'd be scared. maybe it had more of an impact in the movie theater, not to mention it sounds like your friends hyped it up.

I think the word "tense" was more like it when I watched it in the theatres. Although I found the claustrophobic-getting stuck in a tight crumbling tunnel-slowly suffocating as water fills up scene scarier than the creatures.

I was a bit confused at the end where Juno (that Asian girl) gets stabbed by her friend. Earlier, it's very clear that Juno has killed the other girl by accident because the girl snuck up on Juno. I don't think it's justified that Juno gets stabbed like that. I know, it's a movie, but still...

i didnt think so either, but maybe it was showing how the girl who killed juno, blamed juno for the whole f'd up adventure. i didnt understand why they showed the asian girl in the car at the end; what happened

Because she felt guilty and haunted for betraying Juno, I guess. She was dreaming, btw. In the end, she's stuck in there forever; probably would get eaten or kill herself.

Actually I think they'd rape her and pop out human/descent creature babies for "descent 2: surface".
