Synopsis

A group of five American friends on the cusp of adulthood travel to Panama to relax and reconnect. They befriend a local woman in their hotel bar—and despite some ominous whispers—she goes against the specific instructions of her brother and brings the Americans on a daytrip into the pristine falls at the nearby jungle. What begins as an innocent outing to a picturesque waterfall quickly turns terrifying after she suddenly goes missing. As night closes in, the friends realize too late the truth behind the rumors—the legendary, blood-sucking Chupacabra is now stalking them.

Evengyny Thanks for the memories!
Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
midnighttimothy This was an all around enjoyable movie to watch. Many of the other reviews say that the film was slow to get to the action and suspense. While this is somewhat true, the beginning allows you to get to know the characters a bit and have a connection with them before anything scary happens. The action and suspense scenes were well written and the acting was excellent throughout the entire film. The special effects were also very good for being a lower budget movie. I would highly recommend this move to anyone who enjoys creature horror/thriller movies.
GL84 Traveling to Panama together, a group of friends are talked into visiting a mysterious waterfall deep in the jungle only to discover the native folklore of a deadly creature living there is true and must find a way of stopping the creature to get out alive.This one wasn't all that bad but certainly does have some major problems about it. One of the film's biggest problems here is the actual handling of the build-up of the group getting to the main gist of the film which is supposed to be them stranded in the jungle with the creature. Here, it's way too much time of them screwing around with the locals and hanging out doing nothing but ragging on each other that it really starts to get aggravating waiting around for them to get going. It takes up so much time that there's never any real interest gleaned from these segments which just go on for so long that it really starts to wane the interest level in the beginning of this one. The fact that this one really relies on so much time here ripping off other movies that most of what happens here isn't that original or creative and leads to so many portions of the movie that are just cheaply- done imitations of other scenes from other films out there where it takes this one into really familiar territory as scenes of them lurking in the jungle or exploring the area. As well, there's even the feeling later on in the final twenty minutes of this one changing tone for the worst as it inexplicably turns into a more epic worldwide feel with the social media around the world that really takes out a lot of steam at the wrong moment. This is quite a downer of an ending that really doesn't have too much to do with the film as a whole, really helping to lower this one as well. There's a few solid points that works here. This one works quite a lot of mileage out of the location utilized here, with the rather scenic location given a nice look here that makes this one quite creepy as they walk through the jungle. That helps the big scenes in the later half when they start getting attacked by the creature which is quite fun here when this one generates some really decent ambushes. That leads to a few decent moments that generates the appropriate amount of fear and chaos that comes about from their attacks as it winds through the later stages here as it really comes off rather nicely. The creature itself looks great when we get to see it, but overall it's not enough to really help this one.Rated R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language and Brief Nudity.
Mahmut Enbuyuk This film has no originality or self respect.There is nothing I would say is good about this film. It was barely a horror movie. I only saw a few people twitch in the cinema because of the unexpected loud noises (one of which was an engine revving too loudly). The movie is so back in time with the plot that it would probably be classified as a B-movie even in the 70s. Young adults, looking for adventure, finds a possibly dangerous place to travel, they succumb to peer pressure by their friends and so on it begins.It will probably air on your local TV channel pretty soon if you really want to watch it (or something extremely similar to it which can just be a replacement).The only thing I can praise is some of the actors seemed to put an effort.
quincytheodore Indigenous offers the well-known concept of lost tourists on an exotic location where they meet hostile entity. It highly resembles other fiction movies or even miniseries from Discovery channel. To its credit, it gives nice visual of the setting and there is effort to produce horror, but ultimately it is a straightforward and tired endeavor.The story might work to its advantage as audience gets exactly what they expect. There's little diversity here, even in recent year there are several movies with same theme. A few college kids take vacation in a beautiful place, and then they are inexplicably going to ominous site even though there are plenty of visible warnings.Visual is pretty good, the use of location is commendable, although when the encounter happens during nighttime, it reverts to jittery cam. The movie is shot mostly on third person, so it shouldn't encounter this issue like many mockumentary movies. Fortunately, the practical effect works well and it doesn't shy away from displaying the monster instead of maintaining blurry shots.Script does what it needs to, though surprisingly the actors perform admirably. They mostly look genuine, either through occasionally adequate presentation of the horror or the acting itself. In latter half, the movie opts for different gimmick and tries to broaden the scale, a decent effort but not entirely novel.Indigenous is exactly one would expect from lost tourist horror theme, it's far from innovative, but it might just be sufficient in the small scope.
