Agree. Not to mention The Descent 2 is actually a fairly decent sequel.

[–] Levtones (598) 4 years ago

No. It's the most unnecessary sequel of all time.

[–] Wint3rFir3 (7370) 4 years ago

No sequel is necessary, but I find it enjoyable.

A man of taste and culture, I see.

Easily.

[–] [deleted] 7 months ago

Yeah.

I'm not one to prop 'classics' above more recent efforts.

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78545) 7 months ago

Yes.
It ranks up there with the classic horror movies for sure.
