The Descent is an awesome movie. A lot of firsts for me. Very likely the only British movie that I enjoyed whole-heartedly. First of all, 100% of the main cast are female. I've never seen any movie that didn't have men (the husband that appeared for less than 5 minutes in the beginning didn't count). Secondly, there wasn't any holding back in the gore and scare department. I was pleasantly surprised at how many gruesome scenes actually escaped the censorship board. Maybe there was too much and they didn't know where to start censoring without killing the whole movie. Muahahaha. My gain. Thirdly, it was my first outing with 10+ non-straight guys. I was totally enthralled by their drama-queen expressions, explicit sexual comments, openness to hugging and touching... etc. We drew a lot of attention, especially when 2 of the guys screamed louder than the actresses at certain scenes. Truly enlightening experience. Social suicide? I'm not making a conclusion yet. They're loud, bitchy and over-sensitive... but totally honest. And I can't walk hand-in-hand with "normal" guys without worrying about intention.
But I really need some adjusting to comments like "Did you see how huge her boobs look when she was jogging in that skintight thing? It's soft and bouncy and... totally gross!"
Haha.
