Stay well away from Paradise Lost

Paradise Lost

Director: John Stockwell

Cast: Melissa George, Olivia Wilde, Josh Duhamel, Desmond Askew

Cert: 18

Judging by the bloody mayhem in some recent films teenagers really should be discouraged from going on holiday.

Here we find this week’s bunch of hapless ‘packers surviving a bus wreck in Brazil and finding the natives anything but friendly.

So at first things do look up since they’re rescued and taken to a friendly-ish local bar. But friendly it isn’t … robbery and stolen human organs and nice American kids being dissed all over the place.

As a horror film it doesn’t work on any level which is why true fans of such blood-splattered movies should stay well away.

Star Rating: 1/5
