How to Beat the EVIL PLANTS in THE RUINS

[@sweetb2750]

To answer why they didnt build a fence, in the alternate ending/book; the girl who got away wrecked the getaway car and the plant pulled her and the car into the jungle and while doing so, it was revealed the plants also covered all signs. Made the story even more depressing and dark.

[@teache12]

But that means the plants already escaped the area and therefore made the whole thing pointless.

[@mckennadishongh2160]

[@WynneL]

That would be an incredibly happy ending because the wretched person you'd want to die actually dies instead of being the sole stupid/evil survivor.

[@DDIAZ-we4dz]

I mean. To be fair hes got the right idea. Look at those wounds. Most of all kinds of tissue other than bone are gone. There's nothing to save. Even in a modern level 1 this would only be treated with bilat AKAs. with significant wound debridement, and left with a wound vac in place since primary closure would likely not be an option initially. Of course he should have known that he's not a surgeon and without a proper hospital attempting that procedure is likely to kill him faster while still doing absolutely nothing about the infection. So not improving quality of life or outcome. He was always going to die.

[@andrewsealey6942]

@@DDIAZ-we4dz I’m gonna go ahead and disagree here. I’ve seen ex-fixes correct much worse. But maybe you’re talking about the plants, but in any case with no X-rays can’t be definitive.

[@IamBlackToast]

The problem with signs is that, while most people will abide by them, there are plenty of people that see “Keep Out” signs as a challenge or an indicator that there’s something good being kept hidden. I can recall hearing one instance of an underwater cave that had such a high body count that not only were the usual “there’s nothing worth your life in here” signs put up, but a steel grate was also installed to keep potential casualties out of the cave. What did authorities find when they checked on it later? The steel grate removed and a different sign put up that said “You can’t keep us out.”

The fence / sign deal was covered in the book, the plants will tear down or use their spores to influence the area. Also the locals regard it as kind of diety in which they allow sacrafices to hence the archilogists. Basically keep the plant diety happy and it won't come after them or have a reason to spread.

[@joshhorn9164]

To be fair to the villagers, in the book they always try to cover the path back up and hide the traces. Everyone nearby also knows it's dangerous and even told them so. The group barely even found the path to the temple in the first place.

I have a theory on why the villagers didnt just gun them all down right off the bat. Perhaps they make sure the vines have fresh human sacrifices every once in a while to prevent the vines from spreading further in search of food.

[@krishanubanerjee6955]

Bingo! I believe you hit the nail right on the head. There is a theory that the plants are the physical embodiment of a Mayan deity, who'll destroy the world unless it is provided with fresh sacrifices from time to time. That's why there are no boundary walls or signs. The villagers have intentionally spread word about the ruins, so that daredevils visit the place and sate the old God's hunger. They could sacrifice their own people, but why bother, if outsiders voluntarily step in to do it for them? This is a bit like the Cabin in the Woods remake. Sacrifice a few to save the rest of the world!

The worst thing is that if they were able to call for rescue, modern medicine and quarantine procedures would have probably been able to treat them (including the young boy of their own) and ensure the plants weren't able to spread.

No water, wearing sandals, etc. He needed to educate them that they weren't on the forest ride at Disney, and what to bring on a serious hike.

Nobody wins when Amy's the one that got away.

The villagers I think wanted to sacrifice them to the temple which is why they didnt try and coax them off or put up warning signs.

How to survive: alert the proper authorities upon hearing random dude claiming his bro is missing. Don't get dragged in to it. The end.

[@kenthomas7471]

Loved this movie. It's under-rated

In Mexico there's abandoned cars everywhere

[@Tacticalfart1345]

Looking back at this movie I realize that it 100 percent traumatized me

[@falconfilms1990]

Could we get a you wont survive or how to beat love and monsters? Leaning more to you wont survive cause everything in that movie would kill the average person.
