Perhaps not the biggest of surprises considering it’s less than stellar performance in UK - that’s what happens when you release a horror movie in December, with minimal advertising - cinemas, THE DESCENT 2, Jon Harris’s sequel to the 2005 hit British horror is to be dumped straight to Blu-Ray/DVD in the U.S by Lionsgate Films...

Even on Blu-Rat/DVD, it should do good business in the States, where a second film actually makes narrative sense. The UK ending of the movie made a sequel movie nigh on impossible to pull off logically, and even horror fans can only push their ability to suspend disbelief so far. The Descent 2 goes on sale in the U.S on April 27th and the UK April 12th.

Synopsis: Dazed, bloodied and speechless with trauma, Sarah Carter emerges alone from the Appalachian cave system where the events of The Descent took place. Local Sheriff Redmond Vaines forces her back underground to help the rescue team which is desperately searching for her five missing girlfriends. As the team move deeper into the caves, Sarah’s flashes of fractured memory intensify and she begins to realise the full horror of the would-be rescue mission. Only Sarah knows the terror which lurks in the shadows of the caves. But they are about to encounter a new tribe of Crawlers, inbred, deformed and even more viciously feral than those Sarah faced before.
