Yeah, nowhere near as good as the first. A little campy at times, plus, you already know about the creatures in this one, so the surprise, and in turn, the pacing is gone.

Seriously, Descent has probably one of the best slow builds of any horror movie I've ever seen. Second one throws it out the window for typical horror cliches. Still kind of a fun watch though.
I haven't seen it, but I have to wonder if they should have gone completely different rather than trying to duplicate the first.

Since the first was so much like Alien, maybe they could have just copied the Aliens approach for a sequel.

I loved the first Descent, but I really have had no interest to check this one out. Maybe I will eventually.
