Plot: A recently divorced couple ends up in Colombia on an assignment. The day before, they decide to go hiking together. They run into a poacher, but things get a whole lot worse when they flee and end up in a pool of quicksand. Nobody knows they are out there, and the place is teeming with venomous snakes.

A thriller titled Quicksand, the plot writes itself. And so it does, at least for the most part, as there are also snakes involved. It's a completely random combination and even though the animals aren't entirely irrelevant to the plot, I never quite figured out the reason for combining the two.
It's a core genre flick, so after a short intro most of the time is spent with two people trying to escape the quicksand. Don't expect anything out of the ordinary, but the presentation is nice, the pacing is solid and there's a worthy finale. Good filler, and a nice little lead-up to the October month.
