So I read this book when it came out and thoroughly enjoyed and devoured it in like 2 days. It was a psychological thriller that made my skin crawl a couple of times. Pretty intense. It is by the same guy who wrote A Simple Plan. (Scott Smith)
Here is what slashfilm.com has to say: (Trailer after the blurb)
DreamWorks has released a movie trailer for the upcoming big screen adaptation of Scott Smith’s bestselling novel The Ruins. Smith is of course the critically-acclaimed author and screenwriter of A Simple Plan. The Ruins follows two American couples, just out of college, enjoying a pleasant, lazy beach holiday together in Mexico , who become entangled in a brutal struggle for survival after visiting remote Mayan ruins, site of a fabled archeological dig. Directed by Carter Smith, the film adaptation stars Jonathan Tucker (The Black Donnellys), Jena Malone (Saved), Shawn Ashmore (X-Men: The Last Stand), Laura Ramsey (She’s the Man) and Joe Anderson (Across the Universe).
Peace
*Edit: My good buddy from LivefromApt (link on the left) told me but I didn't believe it. This movie actually came out a while back and is all ready on video. whoops! Good reminder to do my due diligence...
