Lionsgate has announced an August 18 DVD release of Last Resort. They were looking for the ultimate getaway and planned for the perfect paradise vacation. What they will get is a trip no one is prepared for. When a group of five girlfriends heads for the tropics to relax, they hit the beach and step out for a night of partying. All is fun and games until someone gets hurt. Robbed by their tour guide and left for dead, the girls take shelter in an old abandoned resort. Their hopes for safety are soon destroyed when an ancient evil is unleashed in this haunted haven.
What does everyone think of this?

Sounds pretty generic. Is it a slasher or ghost film?

I guessed supernatural slasher, but it could go either way really.
I think it sounds worth a watch, would not hurt would it?

I gave this one a watch over the weekend and it's actually a cursed town/supernatural film rather than a slasher. They turn on each other and behave like maniacs rather than using blunt tools and instruments like most slasher films do, though I fear some of you may see some slasher elements since the final chase through the resort is prime slasher material but I don't see enough to call it a slasher film. It's more like being possessed by the spirits at the location to force them to commit acts of violence against each other, only you don't get to see them since that's all handled off-screen with the majority of the film's extremely brief running time (it fits into an hour and a half TV time-slot that contains commercials, so it's 65-70 minutes in length) consumed with the last remaining member trying to find them, unaware of their being trapped in the area.
As for the film itself, like I said it's extremely brief and doesn't contain a lot of good horror elements, so overall it's not all that great.
