The premise
A young backpacker is lured through the third world paradise of Thailand searching for her kidnapped best friend and unknowingly she becomes the object of a sociopath's obsession.
Horror Vault's take
When a young backpacker's trip through Thailand turns desperate, she finds herself racing through an unfamiliar paradise in search of her kidnapped best friend. What begins as an exotic adventure quickly closes in around her as the true danger reveals itself — not just in who she's looking for, but in who has started watching her. Shot with a raw, handheld urgency, Land of Smiles transforms the dream of backpacker freedom into a waking nightmare. The smiling faces and sun-drenched landscapes make the creeping dread all the more disorienting.
