Back to OPs original query:
Any IP lawyers chime-in here, AFAIK you can't copyright an idea or plot, only patent it. The patent must be incredibly specific (down to the last detail), so it would cost a good deal more to patent a film than to make it.
I think. But see caution below!
Anyway, both films are rubbish really, but Hilary Swank sort of gives 'Descent' the edge even if she doesn't get her kit off.
