macpet49-1 Writing and plot suck. We've seen it all before.There is only one reason to watch this--everyone get's their just desserts! This is the only time I've seen all the rotten brat too rich kids get what they deserve and it is fine! Leaves you with that 'great to be alive' feeling. Couldn't happen to nicer people. Why anyone with any sense would go to one of these screwed up So American countries where people have been so psychologically ruined by the church and government for centuries, I do not know!? This is a great ad for 'see America first'. Actually you can find some of these types in the Mid-West and South and all along the Appalachian Trail, so maybe it's better to just stay at home and imagine a trip. Anyway, if you've been cut off by a kid driving a BMW for the umpth time or dissed by a group of youngsters because you're over 30, you need to watch this! It'll make you laugh.

awesomquantumw If you're looking for a horror movie where things are hopeless, you've come to the right place.Strengths of this movie are the brutality and darkness of the whole environment. But what really strikes a cord with me is that why watch a horror movie, if everyone just dies at the end? If everyone just dies, what's the use of spending 2 hours of your life in false suspense?If you want a dark movie and want to see likeable charcters meet gruesome fates they really don't deserve: go ahead and watch it!Personally, wish I never watched this movie. Waste of my time. Go watch SAW if you want a decent movie where characters with moral convictions die according to what they deserve....with alot less gore.

Anna S Having just watched The Green Inferno, I had quite high expectations for this film with a largely similar cast. The trailer had me gripped, but it seems that the beginning of the film did not, spending a painfully long 30 minutes introducing the scene and characters. Once the earthquake hit, I was expecting to be thrilled...but I guess in comparison to The Green Inferno, I wasn't horrified by anything. Of course, there were a few moments of shock scattered throughout but more in terms of plot line as oppose to gore. It was, for the majority, very dark and uncomfortable to watch, but not in the way I would've liked. This was uncomfortable in the sense that I was so bored, you could say, that I wanted to turn off (but I always see a film through to the end). However, a particular highlight for me was the end scene. I smiled and said 'yessss', as although it was somewhat predictable, the film cleverly misleads you to believe there has been a 'happy' ending. Acting and special FX are good. For a new time gore watcher, this will be right up your street. However, for those experienced, it's nothing from the norm.

evilstalkerhorne1 You get it all! There is little left unseen in this movie. You get your token nudity, all the chicks are hot and so much gore and violence in general it will make you glad you were not there. I personally hate most activist groups and the like so watching them get potentially slaughtered and such was just an extra plus! The characters are believable and the acting is well done! The script is solid as well as the story line. This is in my opinion one of the best horror films to date and after watching it a few times now I honestly can say WELL DONE TO ALL! I cannot believe it gets such a low IMDb rating! What goes the extra mile here is that in so many other films done in this style (Cannibal Holocaust) with the same basic plot leave out details and back-story. This does not do so, you see every characters motives and thought processing, values and such. There is no thinking "Hey they would not have done that" or "What the fxck are they doing?" Nope, this is all done without overfeeding the audience such as the US version of Let the Right One In (which I would watch 10 times before watching the US Let Me In again.... which sucked in my opinion). It is a fine line of over doing things and subtly letting the audience know what is going on. This is done VERY well in The Green Inferno of not assuming we all are stupid and need a line scripted to let us know the non-verbals where we should have caught on such as the US version of The Girl with the Red Dragon Tattoo's line "I hope you like anal sex." The french version implied it very well and no actual verbal cue was needed. I could go on about Let Me In doing the same thing but will not since one could go on quite literally all night about such since there were SOOO many of them in that flick particularly. It is insulting and actually makes me angry that directors do this assuming people need such literal cues to catch on to things that they should just understand. So, with this film it was very refreshing that they let you infer such things as lesbians and that certain characters met an ill demise with no line like "Oh they ate _____" no we all are not stupid and can pay some attention to cues you film without the need of spoon-feeding. The ending left me a bit puzzled as to what was said in the interview of the main character. I suppose the sequel may explain since if you watch the credits there is a set up extra scene there. So again, this movie was well done and very well filmed/edited. This is what really puts it apart along with actors and actresses that can all sort of act well. Great job to the special effects people and overall although a stressful thing to produce in a taboo subject matter that will make most not like it etc. this is a gem! If you like gore and slasher films and are a classic horror movie type of watcher this is for you! It is much better than the crappy re-makes everyone is pumping out nowadays such as Evildead and Halloween - both of these re-makes I would have paid not to have seen but out of some misplaced curiosity from the great originals I watched anyway in dismal disgust. It is NOT just a Cannibal Holocaust re-make! We have something much much more useful here people! I doubt it will ever get the credit it deserves as a film in this genre due to it's subject matter. That being said though, it is a VERY under rated film with everything in place put into a believable situation with believable characters in a believable story line in great HD filming with believable special effects and it is edited great also which really does set it apart since most films of this subject or similar types lack in many of these departments. It also does a great job of driving home the abuse of female mutilations that third world countries actually do (those of us who are slightly studious and know a little of the world other than our own backyard will note these things are not made up) but again, due to the subject matter it is easy for most to look away in disgust and dismiss things rather than face them head on in the light of day so I doubt it will be credited for that either. Great job on so many fronts of unpleasantness and taboo subject matter! Well done I can not say this enough! Scary, gross and very real feeling!
