An unpleasant horror thriller about revolting thrill-seeking tourists in Brazil.December 01, 2006
[Director] Stockwell delivers too little of the dread and titillation this genre prescribes.December 01, 2006
Turistas is a passport to a different kind of vacation hell.December 04, 2006
This is just a predictable slice of slasher porn set in an exotic locale.December 01, 2006
While comparisons to Hostel are inevitable Turistas rarely achieves its level of sustained menace and discomfort.July 06, 2010
Turistas is a beautifully shot tale of tropical terror that starts building an ominous vibe early on, but never really turns into a full-fledged gross-out like Hostel. Except for that one part.May 05, 2008
With a plot Frankensteined from the remains of "Hostel", "The Descent" and "Wolf Creek", "Turistas" was clearly never going to be on anyone's 10 best list.November 03, 2012
Paradise Lost is an undemanding thriller with little in the way of invention and not much going on other than some impressive scenery and a few sweet racks.August 12, 2014
Under its glossy exterior and claims to be an extreme version, this is a generic and surprisingly tame horror offering.June 12, 2007
Brazil's tourist industry gets a bad rap in this horror-lite shocker that might just leave you rooting for the bad guy.December 02, 2006
Touted as the first American production to be shot entirely in Brazil, Turistas may well be the last, if the country cares at all about its image.December 01, 2006
It's fitting that, in a season in which Hollywood offers up its prestige pictures -- the ones it hopes will garner critics' prizes and Academy Awards -- Turistas should come along to offer a bit of contrast.
