As the family settles into their new home, Matt grows increasingly disturbed by paranormal activity that seems to inhabit and possess the house.

THE DESCENT 2 picks up immediately after the events depicted in THE DESCENT Sarah (MacDonald), emerges alone from a cave system following an expedition with her five friends in the Appalachian mountains.

Trapped by falling rocks, the rescue party are driven deep into the caverns, and as one by one the fate of the missing girls is revealed, Sarah is forced to confront her deepest fears.
Creek (No Date Avalable)
The two will star as brothers on a mission of revenge who become trapped in a harrowing occult experiment that dates back to the Third Reich.
Listen Jonny Horror...we need a 6th Saw movie like we needed 10+ Friday the 13th movies. They're made strictly for fans of the franchise. If you don't want to see more people getting killed in outlandishly over-the-top traps...don't watch it. My money says that you'll see it.
The Decent 2 is something I am really looking forward too. I caught part 1 on a movie channel like 2 months ago and fell in love with it.
Dick Starr +1 :D
The Horsemen and Daybreakers are the only thing that catch my attention. The Saws have become terrible, and I'm still pissed about the fact that there even is a Descent 2.
i give Lionsgate props for having some of the movies i'm MOST excited to see. MBV3D (i am SO excited to see this even more than i am in seeing the FRIDAY reboot), THE DESCENT 2, DAYBREAKERS and (maybe) THE HORSEMEN are all on my "MUST SEE" list!
I can't really see the fascination with the remake for Valentine, the original was pretty bad and the remake, while i have not seen it, i do know a lot of the people who worked on the sets and location and the word is it is hideous. even the crew was laughing their asses off during the making of it. not in a good way from what i hear either.
The Horsemen sounds way too much like Switchback, Quaid playing a detective who's after his wife's killer. Same premise, just a different modus operandi for the killer.
I'm a hardcore Saw fan, and I WANT the series to end at VI. The Decent was one of the most cliche movies I've seen years, and a sequel sounds about as interesting to me as staring at a brick for an hour and a half. The Horsemen sounds a lot like a Saw/Se7en rip-off, so I can care less, as well. Very unoriginal. I'm hyped for My Bloody Valentine, though.
That's what I thought, frawgman. The plot says "missing girls". What missing girls? They're all dead lol. And who in their right mind would go back in that place? Nobody can truly force you to do anything. You always have a choice.
The Descent 2 will have a hell of a job topping or even being remotely as great as the first. Out of the rest I'm looking forward to "My bloody valentine" most.
Out of the list, I'm really looking forward to The Descent 2.
