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.

Viewing Notes
Not really bad, in fact there are some pretty good parts, but hard to once again excuse the stupidity of the people making the same dumb mistakes that no one makes in real life. There are some scenes reminiscent of THE DESCENT, and I wouldn’t be surprised to find out the filmmakers were inspired in part by that movie.
The social media angle, while perhaps more realistic and unique, felt out of place.
