The Strangeness (1985) / Nightwish (1989)

The film begins with a young man and woman who go to a cave at night, having been sent there to do a job. While looking inside, they both get killed by something off-screen. Then we meet another group of people, including a geologist, a photographer, cave expert, etc., who are going into a cave to find the Golden Spike mine, which has an infamous history of miners having gone missing or mysteriously killed in the past. Since then, no one has entered it, until this group decides to venture in. While taking a break, one geologist gets attacked by a monster, causing the entrance to cave in.
