THE RUINS (2008). Four somewhat shallow people vacationing in Mexico join up with a guy going to meet his brother at a Mayan ruin. Once there, They discover they have walked (literally) into a nightmare.
Without giving too much of the plot away, Leonard Maltin describes TR as "A cross between THE DESCENT and THE LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS" which pretty much describes it perfectly. Although none of the characters are a bargain, they still don't deserve what happens. A decent thrill and a few serious gross-out moments. ***
