Rented this flick over the weekend.

I actually enjoyed this movie. Found it entertaining and well worth the rental price.

The movie builds the plot well, IMO, even with the cliched characters and cliched topless scenes.

Suspenseful. Thrilling.

One of the better horror/suspense/thrill movies I've seen recently. Definitely enjoyed it more than Hostel and the Descent.

It was good. I enjoyed it as well.


But to go as far as to say it's better than Hostel or The Descent, well.....

I recently watched this. Apparently it caused some serious controversy in Brazil because of the stereotypes of vacationing there. Some of the scenes were seriously disgusting. It was okay I guess, I wouldn't watch it again though.
