OKay first...
Let me say. BAD MOVIE, BAD BAD BADDDDDD MOVIE!
OMG HOW BAD HOW BAD!!!
Now let me spoil this...

Spoiler:

It's like every dumb "horror/gore" movie ever put into one.
Tourista's last year, where a bunch of kids go to Brazil, get kidnapped, and killed, plus gore, Saw stupid gore, and Hostel, kids going abroad, getting killed, oh and the first part of the movie with tits.
So, these kids go to Mexico, meet this German guy, German guy wants them to go to this Aztec ruin, that nobody knows about, to go get his bro, they go, even though the locals say not to, but you know, what would they know? Anyway, get to the thing, and a bunch of angry villagers come with guns and bows, and force them to the top, kids freak out, and want to call for help, but nobody gets service, but they hear a cell phone ringing, where? Inside the ruin. UH OH! So they decide to make the German go down the tunnel on an old rope, rope breaks, German breaks his back, they send a girl to go look for the cell, she cuts her leg, because she's stupid and to make the movie have gore. She couldn't find it (cell), so they send the other girl down with a brace thing to put the German on, because you know, saving some guy you don't know, is wayy more important. So, they try to get the phone again, but before that they try to go talk to the villagers, who they throw the vines at because they're pissed, the vine hits a little boy, who then gets shot in the face, they take a hint, and go back, realizing that they dislike the vines (*Why wouldn't you just throw the vines at everyone*), anyway, go back to get phone, follow the ringing, and find the "phone", which is broken, and the flowers are making the noise, flowers/vines chase them out. And vines get inside the girl and German (both have cuts), the doctor boy decides to break the German's legs off, because vines crawl in it, and then they decide to cut the vines out of the girl. Vines go into the German's mouth, while everybody is turned around, and the girl goes psycho with a knife, cutting herself, followed by accidentally slicing the docs hand, and stabbing her boyfriend. Doctor distracts villagers while his girlfriend escapes, he dies, she lives. Movie ends with the German's Greek friends going to the ruins, looking for him.
UH OH!!!

This was quite possibly the worst movie I've ever seen. Some of my friends were all "there's symbolic significance" but I just think its dumb. The guy from Across the Universe played the German dude, and which was probably the only thing worth noting about that movie.

And of course the most irritating of the bunch lives. The entire movie I wanted her to get eaten by evil vines.

Really? I didn't even know that.
Funny thing is, we could've seen sexy sexy Jim Sturgess in 21, but everyone wanted to see the spookkkky flowers instead.

I know, right?! I had no idea that there were vines involved. I figured it would be about some ancient Mayan disease with creepy bugs or some shit; at least that wouldn't be sooo far-fetched.
