Turistas is a 2006 horror-thriller movie directed by John Stockwell. The film follows a group of young American and European backpackers who set out on a vacation trip to Brazil. While on their way, their bus crashes, leaving them stranded in a remote area.
As they venture through the wilderness looking for help, they stumble upon a picturesque beach resort, where they decide to spend the night. But as they relax and party into the night, things take a terrifying turn. The travelers soon realize that they are not alone and that the locals may not be as friendly as they appear.
The backpackers find themselves kidnapped by a group of locals who have a sinister plan in store for them. They awake in an underground chamber where they find that their organs are being harvested for the black market.
As the group tries to escape, they face additional challenges, including treacherous terrain, language barriers, and a corrupt local police force. The film eventually builds to a climactic confrontation between the travelers and their captors.
Turistas features a mix of horror, thriller, and adventure genres, with themes of organ trafficking, corruption, and survival. The movie was filmed on location in Brazil and features stunning scenery, but it also highlights the dangers of traveling to unfamiliar, remote areas. The film's cast includes Josh Duhamel, Melissa George, and Olivia Wilde.
