Movie Meltdown - Episode 458\\xa0

Our Halloween madness fully sets in as we lower ourselves into the caves of insanity that are Neil Marshall\'s The Descent. And as we break down all the fun of being a wendigo, we also mention\\u2026 Carrie, Pet Sematary, like weird but I\\u2019m into it, Flannery O\'Connor, it all comes back to tuberculosis, The VVitch, The Shining, Mammoth Cave, rods through the face, they show him in his beast-personality, it\\u2019s just darkness into darkness, boom\\u2026 bam\\u2026 Doug Jones, Game of Thrones, Navajo forklore, Fred Gwynne or John Lithgow, I jumped off of my couch and screamed\\u2026 and the dogs freaked out\\u2026 it was a whole thing\\u2026 because that was the most effective jumpscare, Fear Itself, so weirdly of the 1600\\u2019s, Doomsday, it\\u2019s the most effective thing you can have, for being like - nothing, jonin\\u2019 for Reesie cups, I\\u2019m ready for it\\u2026 come at me skinwalkers, would you like to be buried alive\\u2026 because that can be arranged, I\\u2019m ready for it\\u2026 come at me skinwalkers, you don\\u2019t remember Zelda?, Centurian, having extra children, Skin and Bones, I was just biting my knees, making full use of closed captioning, you want us to go Magellan this cave right now, The Burrowers, you made a fine movie but you need to work on your spelling, whether it be werewolves or cholera, Black Phillip, Edgar Allan Poe and a weird gas station attendant.

Spoiler Alert: Actually double spoiler alert, because not only are we going to go into full spoilers for The Descent but we are also going to discuss the director\\u2019s cut ending which was, and is, Neil Marshall\'s original way to end the movie.
