To say that this is the best book I've ever read would probably sound pretty jarring, but I read maybe a book a year if I'm lucky, so it doesn't have too much competition. Needless to say, I'm more excited than ever for this movie to come out now. Re-watching the trailer, I can already notice a few changes that are being made between the novel and the film, but with the author of the book also having written the script for the movie, I have faith that it will at least be a good representation of the source material.

Definitely inspired by Apocalypto, but this doesn't look like it could win me over. I love the “Road Trip Gone Wrong” horror movies, but I dunno.

I've never read the book, but when I first heard about this project a few months ago I read all about it on Wikipedia and it sounds fucking great. The trailer looks really promising as well. Primitive people who sacrifice tourists to a living jungle that fucks with and devours them? Gold! God damn, I cannot wait for this movie!
