Heading to a small, abandoned island for a traditional game, two groups of college students unwittingly summon a cursed, demonic piñata that begins a rampage of terror on the groups, forcing them to band together to stop it.
An enjoyably cheesy affair, this one has some rather good parts to it that goes along rather well with its few intentionally creepy moments. The opening history of the being is pure cheese, as are the CGI-heavy sequences of it morphing into various designs and body types, which are just so goofy and clumsy that it's impossible not to be somewhat entertained at what's presented during these scenes. There's also the film's rather convoluted back-story for the participants of the expedition, who are given way more than is necessary for these kinds of films and don't really need one considering what's happening during the horror scenes, which are quite fun and kinetic. The piñata eye-view of the scenes adds some excitement, the stalking is great as the island paradise location is supposedly abandoned and that allows for the kills to come off infinitely better than expected. A cheese-fest through-and-through, but still entertaining.
Rated R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language, Brief Nudity and drug use
