Finally, Lionsgate seems to realize the kind of potential horror hit they have on their hands with Neil Marshall’s The Descent, and they’ve officially announced plans for its theatrical release this August. There is a God.
Though no specific date has been set, it will be out wide in August. I just hope it doesn’t suffer the same fate last summer’s horror offerings suffered from the studio, namely The Devil’s Rejects and High Tension. I get the feeling, though, that The Descent will do well based on word of mouth alone because it is a great horror film, plain and simple.
We’ll be keeping our ears open for more info on the release details.
