Rising star Josh Duhamel (TV's Las Vegas) leads a group of young backpackers who find themselves stranded on a remote Brazilian beach; an exotic paradise, with warm sunshine, cool ocean breezes, and plenty of hot bodies. But, after a night of partying, the wayward turistas are drugged and robbed, and their dream vacation becomes a gruesome nightmare. Trapped and desperate, the vulnerable travelers are lured deep into the menacing jungle and beyond, where a dark and twisted fate too terrifying to imagine awaits.

Summary: Brazilian Nightmare
Comment: This movie portrays my country as a savage,Neanderthalesque,lawless,lewd and corrupt destination.It missed only the pigmees,canibals and their drums...
The only good thing from that movie are the bikini-clad girls,very hot.It was a pity that a Brazilian doctor with a SPANISH surname had the rather odd urge to kill them.
I don't know any case in which a tourist had its organs removed.The local thieves,kidnappers and rapists don't do such thing.Here,you'll just gonna be robbed if you're with your camera,watch or jewelry.Your kidneys are quite safe.

Summary: Turistas
Comment: This turned out to be a really good movie! I actually saw this movie for sale in Blockbuster for $5 months ago, but after reading the description of it, chalked it up to being another edition of Hostel. Only recently when it came on cable did I realize that it is much, much better than Hostel.

Summary: Stay far,far away from this garbage
Comment: This movie is so haorrible its not even funny.its very slow movie,the acting is bad,all of the good action takes place at the end and before you know it its all over before you got a chance to even enjoy it.if you are looking for this type of film watch any of the saw movies or the two hostel movie...all of which are better then this.trust me dont even rent this.i got it for $5.99 and felt cheated.a fair warning to all those considering this....DONT DO IT to yourself.

Summary: Gory, Gross and Good?
Comment: A lot of negative reviews here might make you overlook this movie. It is in the Hostel/Saw genre of gross out, torture movies, but is actually fairly entertaining. The movie plays on the abduction fears many tourists have about latin America and steps it up a notch by adding in black market organ thieves. Sexy actors and actresses and a beautiful natural landscape provide nice eye-candy which coupled with an interesting story line makes for a good night of entertainment. Sure there is the obligatory gory scenes, but that is all part of this popular genre. The bottom line is if you like Saw you will probably like this movie. If you don't like the gross-out genre then this movie probably isn't for you.

Summary: In the 'vein' of "Hostel"...
Comment: This film touches a visceral nerve. Set against the beautiful scenery of Brazil, it follows the travels of American tourists unaware they are being lured to their deaths. If you liked Hostel (Unrated Widescreen Edition), you will enjoy this movie. The thematic elements are the same, but they are two very different films. I mostly stayed away from this one because it got some bad press, but upon viewing it, felt that it was well crafted and worth a gander, especially if you are looking for yet another layer of horror topography. And the nubile bodies bouncing around the screen don't hurt either. Check this out if you want a diversion from the abundant teen slasher or zombie fodder.
