Introducing....The Ruins! I saw it quite a while ago and the release date in US was april 2008 so its like 2 months old.
Plot: Four tourists travel goes on an Mexican holiday and stumbles upon a German who urges the tourists to visit an ancient Mayan temple. Upon arrival they meet unfriendly locals and their lives change forever.
This is not your average clichéd horror *cough* Prom Night *cough* (XD howie), but it delivers a new way to terrorize the audience. OK, I admit there weren't that many scares (maybe 1 that I jumped at) but the film keeps you on the edge of your seat the whole time. The acting is superb and their emotions shine through, the death scenes were fairly gory and very depressing but the ending only slightly tips me off.
I heard the book had a different and better ending so if you'd be able to read the book before seeing the film I recommend you do it. The film's kinda disturbing, gory, well-acted one, and i reckon it's the best horror film of the new century, with an original piece of cinema that achieves the status of an instant classic.
Starring hot young stars Laura Ramsey of SHE'S THE MAN, Jena Malone (INTO THE WILD), Jonathan Tucker(PULSE), Shawn Ashmore(XMEN).
