We just finished watching The Ruins. I loved the book, however the movie creeped me out. I am so glad that we rented the movie we almost bought it but I don't think I could watch it a second time. If you have not read the book it is definatly worth reading unless you are planning a trip to Mexico anytime soon, then read it when you get back. The movie had great special effects but was a little to bloody for me.

We both read the book - TOTALLY creepy. In fact when we were climbing the sand dunes in Mag Bay, we kept getting creeped out by the dune vines... We told Tim, Pam and Stan to watch out for the vines! Then we gave them the book to read, so Tim was actually reading it while in Mexico! Will have to try to find it down here on dvd when it's available...
That's the problem with most of the new thriller movies these days; they concentrate more on gore and shock value then on actual creepiness. I don't bother watching many movies anymore.
