Turns out, it's a pretty good film. Very much along the lines of "The Cave", I think I like it better, but the ending is pretty weak.
It's funny you say that...I got this awhile back, too, on DVD, when my friends in the UK highly recommended it. I think this is one of the best horror films ever made! I'm just super-disappointed that they're changing the ending for the American release.

I think the ending is beautiful and symbolic and necessary to stay true to following the journey of the heroine, and I'm sorely disappointed they've chosen to Hollywood-ize the ending for the American release.
