    Yay, another PG-13 horror movie! I was just thinking to myself--we need ANOTHER generic PG-13 horror movie...

    Thank goodness "The Ruins" is coming!

    Generic?

    You obviously didn't read the book...might want to before you knock it.

    We've just had a lot of discussion weeks ago about how Hollywood is out of ideas and should turn to books more instead of remaking crap, so this is what they did with the Ruins, and you still have a problem with it, lol.

    No, I have a problem with a horror movie rated PG-13. How can a fan of the book actually like that fact?

    I'm sick of watered down "horror" movies--we see them every week, and they all suck. Will this one be better? At PG-13, the odds aren't very good.

    If this was a straight Rated R scare fest, then yes, I'd say there would be some reason to be excited. This movie could have been another Descent, but they took the easy way out to pander to teenagers.

    I dunno, rated R or not, some of the previews have been pretty gruesome.

    Although, there is one scene in it and I'm curious how much they'll show at the PG13 level.

    This one is more creepy than gory, so PG13 may be OK. I'm a little concerned about the plot changes, but am really looking forward to this one.
