Advantages: Worth a look if you like horros
Disadvantages: Plot gets a bit out of hand
Watching Paradise Lost gives you the feeling its a sort of cheap low budget version of Hostel.
The story follows an American brother and sister who are joined by her friend on a trip to Brazil. Rather than having to wait 10 hours for the plane they decide to take the bus trip.
They are soon joined by 2 loud mouth brits and an Australlian girl (Mellisa George) who happens to be the only one who can speak the native laungauge.
They stumble across a beach where they decide to stay and party for a while. The awake the next morning to find out they have been robbed and all their stuff and belongings have gone.
One of the natives befriends the group but its later revealed that he is leading them to their worst nightmare.
They soon reach their destination where a psycotic doctor wants to remove all their organs so he can give to the local hospital. From this point its a game of cat and mouse as some of them manage to escape and are pursuited by the doctor and his henchmen.
It's not the worst film I have ever seen and it kind of starts off well but I feel as it got near the end things just started getting a bit out of hand and I feel it could have been made alot better. Its one of those films that you can understand why it was released straight onto dvd.
Summary: Not the best of horros but worth a rental
