Review

The Cave is a horror movie about a team of cave divers that disturb a colony of subterranean monsters.

The Cave is basically a very close cousin to the Alien films; however, the story takes place on Earth in caves during the present day. The underwater cinematography is beautiful, and the movie is entertaining, but there is little in The Cave that we have not seen before in movies such as Aliens, Pitch Black, Alone in the Dark, etc.

The Cave is not necessarily a bad film, but the material is 90% recycled. The Cave is pretty much the standard “man-eating creatures in the shadows” film. If you watch The Cave, don’t be surprised if you’re not surprised.

Rating (1-10)
