If not for Hostel, we'd never have been treated to the gory, horrific delights so lovingly captured with sadistic detail in Turistas. Together, these movies could be spawning a radical new Hollywood-pedigreed sub-genre of extreme horror. Like Hostel, Turistas concerns a group of American hardbodied kids on an exotic foreign vacation--this time in Brazil. After a suspense-filled opening sequence of a speeding bus careening off a dangerous mountain (it's also tinged with just the right kind of humor), the kids wander into the seeming paradise of a secluded beachfront resort where they think nothing of locals who lure them one by one to their gruesome and shocking deaths. Hey, they're here to party! These excruciatingly graphic scenes unfold in the lair of a madman doctor named Zamora, who harvests organs of the still-living as a way of exacting revenge on American turistas to "give back" to the locals they exploit with their capitalist dollars. One such scene has the donor undergoing surgery without the help of anesthesia wherein the lovely young "patient" has the chance to see her still thriving innards pulsing warmly on her well-formed chest to the tune of her own screams. This stuff is not for the faint of heart (or liver, or kidney, or lungs, for that matter). But there is a fair amount of nicely staged tension, especially a "foot" chase scene in a water-filled cave that will give claustrophobics a whole new way to experience nightmares. The two most familiar faces are Melissa George and Josh Duhamel, from TV's Alias and Vegas respectively. Fans of this new world of extreme gross-out horror should be thankful that TV has plenty of cute young bodies waiting for their big screen break, no matter how many organs they have to donate to get there. --Ted Fry




Rating: - Turistas
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.

Rating: - Gory, Gross and Good?
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 ... Read More

Rating: - In the 'vein' of "Hostel"...
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 ... Read More

Rating: - You Can't Beat the Scenery, For a While
I will attempt to make this short, while hopefully covering some important points which will help you to consider this film for its merits as well as its flaws. Firstly. An initial caveat to all you raconteurs with high expectations. That is, do not--I say do not go in to see this movie thinking you are going to get a cinematic product on the level of an Alfred Hitchcock or Stanley Kubrick film. Yeah, don't think that. But I do not think that I am stretching things in saying that you will enjoy a fine time ... Read More
