The most part? Maybe it's because I saw the movie a good while back and I don't properly recall, but I doubt much screaming and crying occurs (other than when someone is injured) before the mutants turn up, and I doubt "How to handle carnie mutants" is part of the regular spelunkers' handbook.

Secondly it's revealed fairly early on that Juno has deceived them into an unmapped cave with unknown dangers (even aside from carnie mutants) and nobody actually knows where they are. I suspect this sense of being cut off from the outside world is the sort of thing that would unnerve a normal person.
