"horror down deep
This is a movie about a world class dive team who go to the Carpathians Mountains to explore a cave. When they start exploring in this deep cave, they discover some dangerous predators. These monsters attack them. They fight for their lives for survival and a way out of this remote deep cave. The movie is similar to Aliens in that a parasite associated with the monsters can invade the human host. The cave set is very impressive and realistic. I thought it was an entertaining horror/thriller/sci-fi movie."

- tneagle, gave it a 4/5

"Ok movie, kind of corny, but once you get past the first boring 30 minutes, it gets better. The ending is good"

Additional Information

While it might give spelunkers a few helpful hints about using their equipment, The Cave is strictly routine as an Alien-styled monster show. The film's major achievement is its impressive setting -- not a real cave under the Carpathian mountains (where the ill-fated characters are exploring "the Amazon of underground rivers") but a lavishly convincing cave set built on a Romanian soundstage. This gives first-time director Brad Hunt (a second- and third-unit director on the Matrix trilogy) the movie's only claim to originality, as the cavernous interiors become a death trap for most of the nine-person team (led by Cole Hauser, and including Morris Chestnut, Daniel Dae Kim from TV's Lost, and Coyote Ugly's Piper Perabo) that's exploring the maze-like cave for reasons never fully explained (maybe they just wanted to test out their fancy gear). They're not alone down there, and creature-feature specialist Patrick Tatopoulos borrows from the H.R. Giger design-book with some gnarly critters that, in turn, borrow elements from The Thing to foment suspicion and anxiety among the dwindling crew of survivors. It's all familiar to genre buffs, but there's just enough in The Cave to satisfy the curiosity of its intended audience. Dumped into theaters for a marginal release in late summer 2005, it's precisely the kind of horror flick that finds a second life on DVD. --Jeff Shannon - Amazon.com
