    if the killer is once down, finish him! or die.

    I personally did not like it. terrible acting. lame story. irrational behaviour. among all the men-hunting movies out there this was a disappointing one.

    Stupid

    These people just never pay attention regardless of the amount of danger they're in. They make it pretty easy for the killer. I couldn't wait for it to end. Worst horror movie ever 🙄

    Stinker, don't waste you time.

    Terribly written and so slow it actually made 2 people fall asleep. I get what they were going for but they really missed the mark. It was a pretty annoying movie. Well the concept is horrible, but whomever put this garbage together doesn't know how to make a movie. The writing sucks, the acting sucks, the directing sucks. Do you get the idea that this entire ting sucks? I wanted to dig my eyes out with a rusty fork.

    Very short movie for me

    I gave this movie 3 stars for the 3 minutes I spent watching it. Any movie that has to rely on that much intense graphic, gory and gruesome scenes in that short of time can't be worth watching. Nothing left to the imagination here folks!

    Get Ready for the 180!

    Odd movie. Firstly I don't think they had permission to film in Cuba. All the external scenes are filmed from a distance and in very short segments, like they were hiding something from government officials. Kinda like that guy who made a feature film in Disney World surreptitiously.

    That kind of makes a weird movie even weirder. So I agree with the other reviewer who gave this 5 stars. It starts out as a slow tension building thriller and then literally 40 minutes into it BANG!!!!! it's a different genre!

    The dumbest part of this second half is that the group of "hunters" walk absurdly slow -- like slow motion slow -- so the three tourists can pretty much out run them.

    Some of the bad reviews here are clearly from people who didn't watch the movie and just wanted to leave a bad review, because they make references to scenes that never happened!!!!

    So is it good? Well it's good the way movies like this are good. Movies like Hostel and Turistas. If you like those you'll find something here to like.
