Sinking lower and lower

Continued my recent foray into the sub(terranean)-genre of spelunking slasher movies with The Cave. My first expedition came a few weeks ago with The Descent, a film so scary the only way I could watch it was via a minimized window on my Mac, while messing around with iTunes so that I was slightly distracted. Anyway, I was able to watch The Cave on a normal TV with no distractions, but this was of little solace as it didn't change the fundamental crapness of the film itself. Confusing, dull and pointless, helmed by a Unit Director from the Matrix movies the one mitigating factor was that it featured Marcel Iures, a central European actor I'm inexplicably obsessed with (he's the Bosnian Serb terrorist in The Peacemaker and he's also in Layer Cake) and let me assure you, this is not much of a mitigating factor. I don't know why I do this to myself. I should really try watching some good films once in a while.
