The Bloody Truth:
Plants are Nasty
I do feel for the plants; too many vegetarians out there eating em and no
one to stand up for the little guys, but in the Ruins they are more than able
to take care of themselves.
The bloody truth is that the Ruins is a compact and simple horror film that
despite the lack of a strong or complete story is effective and fairly well put
together for modern American horror.
If you enjoy watching young people haplessly tossed into a meat grinder of
confusion, fear, pain and eventual insanity then the Ruins is just perfect for
you. Just don’t expect anything from the story aside from the imaginatively
odd villain.
