    In "Ruins," the horror comes from within the group. The man-eating plants are a mere gimmick to force a series of confrontations and decisions among the tourists. The human reactions range from fear and denial to suspicion, accusations, madness and murder along with several grotesque surgical procedures and plant invasions of bodies that give the prosthetics designer free reign. — The Hollywood Reporter

    Having read the book, I knew what to expect to some extent. I wasn’t hopeful, so I can’t complain that I was entertained for all the wrong reasons… but at least I was entertained by his future Golden Turkey nominee. I'd see it again, but a couple of Cadillac Margaritas will have to be involved. — Horror.com
