I didn't think "Touristas" was real bad.....it's just a watered-down version of "Hostel.":)

It was just your average Hostel/Wolf Creek type film. However both WC and Hostel are better. But it was ok, I didnt mind it. Maybe 6/10.

Neither Turistas or Hostel really did it for me,not bad movies but not good either imo.I enjoyed Wolf Creek,it was too slow to begin with but I thought the later stages were pretty good.

I thought Wolf Creek was pretty good, very very slow though.

I've been interested in Turistas/Paradise Lost for a while now but after reading so many negative reviews I'll have to give it a miss.

honestly didn't think too much of hostel granted there were tits galore, but that's about all the film had going for it

wolf creek was awesome, but consider it more or less in the same league of touristas, which i think was a great movie by the way

anyone else impressed with the revival of the slasher flick format; love it but allows room for improvement (vacancy)

Great to see someone starting a thread on this movie. When i first read about it in a magazine, i immediately thought, this sounds similar to Hostel. I've only seen about 20 minutes of this. I guess the appeal of the movie is based on how we've all heard stories of tourists going missing and ending up victims, organs on the black market etc. The appeal with Hostel for me is the "what if there really are places out there like that". If you look closely at the plot then it provokes thinking of the possibility, that this could happen and it makes the whole plot believeable and therefore good.
