[@GrimReaper-dh8yc]

I remember a story about a guy who got trapped in a cave-in in Mammoth Cave for a couple of days. The real problem wasn't food or water (which he had plenty of) but the deafening silence. It was so quiet that he could hear the blood rushing through the veins and arteries in his ears which was so loud he couldn't sleep so he kept smacking the cave wall just to make some kind of noise. Otherwise he'd have gone completely nuts by the time he was found.

On the matter of echolocation - interestingly enough, echolocation is a learnable skill for present-day homo sapiens. There are a number of recorded cases of people who were born blind or lost their vision very early in life who have developed forms of echolocation. It appears that their brains were able to re-wire themselves so that auditory information activates the visual cortex of the brain.

[@harrykane6053]

I used to live in a borderline hoarder house, and would use my sense of hearing to walk around the junk at night. I wonder if that is like some form of echolocation? Even if things had been moved around by one of the animals or something I would "see" it in the dark. If I wore earbuds or there was music on too loud I would lose this ability, and it felt like walking around with a blindfold on in comparison.

Fun fact this movie is loosely based off a book of the same name by Jeff Long. The creatures are an off shoot of ancient men that hid underground during the ice age I think, and adapted to life underground. The surface world finds tunnels and cave systems that span nearly the entire world and under the oceans and colonize them, then find the creatures have massive tribes that live there. It's a pretty good horror book, but can be kind of long winded at times. Worth a read if you like the creatures and want some more back story and lore about them and an overall better story than the movie lol

Oh yeah, and the cave people were a global thing. At one time they were a large population, hadn't lost the ability to think critically, and colonized everywhere there was a cave system.

Hey, I actually noticed the way their skulls indent around the facial region up to the upper cheeks where their ears are! This is something you see in owls, actually.. That amplifies their hearing significantly without having protruding ears that would give away their location at night with a moving silhouette to potential prey. Of course, these things have protruding ears of sorts- but its not like they needed to worry about that too much.

It's funny that he brought up Dog Soldiers since The Descent is the same director and team. The subtext that he said he didn't really understand is that Juno was having an affair with the husband (Great example of "show, don't tell."). This is actually a really good, and really smart movie filmed on a low budget. The camera work is great, when they're in tight spaces they don't just take the easy approach and cut a hole in the "rock" for the camera, for example once the attached it to a piece of wood and crammed it in there with the actors to give the viewer the same feeling of claustrophobic feeling that the character is having. There are several shots of the monsters that you can easily miss if you're not paying attention, and they don't zoom in and do a loud boom sound effect like most horror films. I highly recommend giving this one a watch for the artistry behind it alone.

Massive phenotype alterations can happen in relatively short periods of time. Remember all Dog breeds are less than 10,000 years old. I understand that that example is one of selective breeding.

Granted, breeding and raising a dog takes several years and not several decades or centuries as with humans. But, it's certainly possible to change humans by simply putting them in situations over time. Also, with dogs, they all tend to follow the same patterns unless we look at flatfaced ones. But it's essentially the same as picking someone with down syndrome and referring to them as a new breed of person.

[@faceless2302]

I don't think this is a matter of strength so much as other factors. The humans can plainly see and combat the monsters in the light with precision, which gives them an advantage; The monsters using ambush tactics doesn't so much represent a weakness so much as a well developed sense of predatory instinct and self preservation, since catching prey defenseless minimizes damage sustained to the predator. Raw physical strength isn't exactly gauged here, except for the fact that that the monsters can boulder across cave walls and ceilings, which does suggest a large amount of training and strength because people who do that are crazy and usually super wirey from years of practice.

Minor point of order on the early description of the divergence: ancient human ancestors likely didn't go too deep into caves because they didn't have much need and light would have been an issue. Yes you can take a crude fire torch in deeper for light or even start a campfire if you have the wood, but eventually that would become dangerous between gasses and smoke, not to mention start having logistical issues maintaining the light. So for some reason, the ancestors of this offshoot felt a need to go deeper into the caves, and also survived in there. Part of me wants to speculate the ice age might have been involved, as I could see ancient humans running out of wood and furs in a cave with a natural heat source choosing to go deeper for that reason before finding a way to survive somehow.

By the way in case you were curious, the mountains in Scotland used to be connected to the appellations when North America and Europe were still together. Interesting considering some of the folklore has very big parallels.

Already subbed to Roanoke Tales. If I ever went caving I'd bring all of the batteries and all of the flashlights. In fact that is all I would bring, I'd be loaded down with flashlights and batteries, flares, glow sticks, survival candles, I would have head lamp lights strapped to every part of my body. It would be like a concert in that frigging cave. I might die from exposure or starvation but I would have light damn it!

Great review & study! I "accidentally" saw The Descent as part of a double feature at the drive-in. It showed after 28 Weeks later I believe. Glad we stayed! I don't remember seeing any commercials or any other promotional stuff for it's release. We were blown away by it! What a cool concept. Oddly, the cut we saw had the European ending, not the US cut. I still watch this & part 2 about once a year.

[@drekodemonic]

Fun fact about Scotland is that it sits on the Great Glenn fault, which is a Strike-Slip fault, means that it runs side-by-side and thus can't make mountains under normal circumstances. Something similar has happened on the island of Newfoundland in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, in Northeastern America. Considering plate tectonics and continental drift, and the only real mountainous regions of Northeastern Ameroca this means that at one point, Scotland was indeed a part of the Appalachian Mountain Range.

[@disbeafakename167]

That explains a lot actually...

[@drekodemonic]

It does. Also explains why, when Scottish people started settling down in the Appalachian ranges they would say it was because it reminded them of Scotland.

Juno absolutely was at fault for all of her friends deaths and Beth would not have even been in a position to try to sneak up on her had she not lied to the group about where they were going to begin with. Juno is this movie's villain, not the creatures.

Extending that caves mess up sound note: Many caves muffle sound due to their stone, limestone for example is porous and messes up sound because it acts like a sound diffuser but caves with a less porous rock gives you those echoes. Andesite caves for example, can carry sounds deep into their recesses.

[@thesarcasticliberal]

The Cave (2005) actually has a very similar, and even more interesting, concept of devolution. It's a similar movie scenario, but the mutations are enabled by a symbiotic pathogen that mutates the hosts to better fit their environment by snatching genes from other animals in the environment (ie. in a partially flooded cave system, it causes them to develop gills to supplement their lungs and echolocation to replace their vision, along with claws and bat-like wings).

[@noneofyourbusiness4294]

Wings sound like a terrible adaptation for a human sized creature in a cave system. Even more so if it's blind.

Juno had an affair with Sarah’s husband. That’s why Juno cried in the hospital and also why she tried to get them all together again out of guilt. After Juno accidentally kills Beth, Sarah’s truest friend, and lies about it - Sarah turns on Juno, Sarah finds out about the affair through Beth because remember Beth took Junos necklace during the attack. The necklace has a quote her husband lived by inscribed on it.
