The Cave (2005)
I saw that someone previously mentioned this movie in their suggestion for "The Cavern." But this person insinuated that "The Cave" was successful in some capacity. I don't know where they got their information, but it was only successful in the sense that someone actually managed to con some Hollywood execs into giving them money to make this ****** version of The Descent. One reviewer actually said, "The insipid dialog lacks even a hint of comic relief, so the audience is grateful when the action quickly kicks into gear."
Here is a link to a visual synopsis of the film by someone who actually enjoyed it:

Before I tell you why you should choose this movie, some context. I was first introduced to the movie when a friend and I rented it from Blockbuster. I was already an MST3K fan, and once I realized how awful the movie was, I soon found myself compelled to riff it myself! But my friend soon became very annoyed with me, so for the sake of our friendship, I had to internalize my riffing for the rest of the movie (well, I TRIED to anyway).
So, first off, there are a couple of celebrities that will make easy fodder. Lena Headley for all your Game of Thrones references and Daniel Dae Kim for LOST! Second, the dialogue is ridiculous and the plot predictable, and yet nonsensical at the same time. Even so, the plot is just interesting enough that you want to see how it ends. There's mythology, mystery, and SCIENCE!! Everything the kids today love. And thirdly, it has crazy looking creatures that are the product of parasites, so of course one of the main characters start going through "the change." gasp!
Here is a link to an official trailer and its confusing tagline:

Thank you for your consideration and hope you have a pleasant, monster-free day!
