Preview: The Ruins (2008)

• Poster: F

Review:

A semi-detailed placeholder, but a placeholder nonetheless.

• Trailer: D+

Review:

Every time I've seen this trailer (twice in the theater before I found it online), I've been struck by how much the film starts out looking identical to Turistas and closes looking like a teen-killing version of Bug. Either way, the film look completely terrible.

Oscar Prospects:

The more critically acclaimed Bug wasn't even considered by the Academy. This will probably not even do well at the box office either.

Release Date:

• April 4, 2008
