    In the special features for the movie they described the creatures as the cavemen who never left the caves.
    Also the director purposely hid what the creatures looked like from them, so in the scene when they all encounter one for the first time that is their actual genuine fear you see from them.

    Great film choice to react to I’m a real horror movie connoisseur and this is definitely one of my favorite horror films ever made. Not only is it extremely tense but it tackles a lot of themes in a brilliant way.

    For once, I'm 100% with Rick. So glad he went with the true ending. Amid all the talking and freaking out, I think a lot of the crew missed out on the subtle bits (like how the monsters mimicked children sounds, when they weren't screaming) and how each successive birthday cake scene was another level of mental descension. Completely on board with Rick in that I believe "The Descent" was her losing it due to ptsd, mental stress and survival panic.
    One can plausibly presume that Sarah is the one who killed everyone and there quite possibly were no creatures at all. The Descent represents a descent of her mental state.
    The clues are there: she's taking medication (presumably for depression) as seen in the cabin right before the pipe bursts through the window (her first ptsd trigger).
    On the walk to the cave one of the girls lists the dangers of cave diving (dehydration, paranoia, panic, disorientation, visual & oral hallucinations).
    She begins hearing repeated noises during the cave exploration: a child's laughter. The beginnings of her auditory hallucinations.
    The three visions of her daughter represent each level of descent of her psyche: the first being the trauma of the accident that killed her husband and daughter.
    The second being after the cave-in. And the third manifesting her daughter into one of the creatures. Thus transforming in her mind all the women into creatures.
    The third vision of her daughter is up for debate. There could still have been a creature that caused them to split up and when Sarah awoke, she couldn't differentiate between creature and her friends. Or Sarah could have panicked and ran, causing them to split up which led to Sarah falling, hitting her head and waking up. From that point on, Sarah is an unreliable viewpoint.
    All of this is inexplicably negated by the theatrical cut, lol. One of the rare instances where the difference between a theatrical cut and a director's cut can transform a great horror film into merely a good one.

    This is one of the best examples of a movie being of two halves, and each half standing on its own. Most of the time one half is clearly better than the other, or one half feels like unnecessary padding; but in this, each half (the claustrophobia horror and the creature feature) are essential to each other, and could also fill an entire movie on their own.
