A group of five friends are on vacation and they explore a cave. However, they become lost inside, and they must do whatever it takes to survive. This movie shows the grittiness and realism of what can happen if you go into an unexplored and unused cave system. I guess this is like a realistic version of The Decent, but instead of showing trained spelunkers and cave-dwelling monsters, it shows how sadistic people can be when their need to survive outweighs all else. This is filmed mostly through a camcorder.
This movie is entirely in Spanish. I do not speak Spanish very well - I picked up a word here and there - but it was easy enough to follow what was going on. I'm hoping they'll release a dubbed version or at least a version with subtitles. Still, you can catch what's happening without that, though I'm not quite certain how the people became lost; perhaps that was mentioned in the dialogue. There are a few jumps in this, which is usually rare for these types of movies, so that was a welcome surprise.
I gave this a 7-star rating because the acting was very good, especially Marta Castellote. The sets were also cool. The filming, as I said earlier, was done via camcorder, so take that how you want. There is a lot of nudity in the beginning; they have full-frontal of a woman and a man. The storyline wasn't very original, but the movie was executed in a very realistic way. There are NO special effects of any kind. Really, the film didn't need them. If you're looking for a creature feature with special effects and such, watch The Decent. If you're looking for realism, watch this. I recommend it.

This movie seems to be very nice for me cause it's a horror movie without ghost or anything if you like to watch cave videos this movie makes you feel better. Language is not a barrier for this movie just enjoy & explore some cave.
Rip : John Jones
A silly, unrealistic film about idiotic young people doing what they knew they should not do just to impress one another and that predictably goes wrong. A redeeming factor is that it was (at least in part, I guess) really filmed in a cave, and a cave surrounded by a very, very beautiful natural forested/beach location. An aggravating factor is that the plot offers an interesting ethical dilemma which is so badly handled it loses all effectiveness. The audience (should I say victims?) must chose if one thing neutralizes the other or just highlights it; notwithstanding I'd not recommend it.
A simple tale of a group of youths getting lost in a dark dingy cave has a lot more to offer than you expected.
First of all, there are no ghosts. But what has been shown to be as monsters are humans themselves. It is debatable. How do you survive with no food and water nearby? Do you just keep searching searching searching until you pass out or is there an even more devilish way out? This film showcases exactly that.
I am from India and first things first, I find it absolutely hilarious or actually weird to see men and women happily show there naked but*h*les on the camera (one of them actually, on a serious note, goes on to show his naked but*h*le in the camera). Seems, Spanish censor board allows such things. In India, censor board members would have simply passed out not by seeing the main part of the film, but by seeing those naked as*es and bu*th*les .
Next thing is the main part, the cave. It's shot really well. I truly felt tensed and scared as the lost group tried figuring their way out and things get absolutely terrifying towards the climax but its ending is kinda cold and not well made.
Great entertainment for a night.

Shot in a 90% Found Footage style, this film goes from being a fun mood trip of 5 friends to becoming absolutely insane and terrifying towards the end. The story is plain simple but execution is top class.
