Default 'Turistas' -- pre-release buzz

Not a surprise as it was announced at CES, but Fox finally set along official specs:

I love horror movies, but I'm a bit skeptical on this one. Anyone seen it?

I read somewhere that this was to be the rated version and not the unrated version.

I saw this in the theater(slow weekend) and while it's nothing special plotwise, there is a sequence involving a chase in underwater caves that was pretty spectacular on the big screen, so maybe that might come across on hd.

Really though it's not a horror movie, it's a thriller. There's one torture scene which is pretty pointless and feels out of place. Mostly it's just attractive people running away from men with guns in a jungle.

No, it was postponed from last April after Fox vanished from for about 6 months and was never rescheduled.

I hope it never comes out.
I watched a tad of it on HBO and thought it was complete shit. The acting, the characters, the whole plot...been used before. This is just a terrible version of a horror movie.
