victoryismineblast Direct to video found footage by producer Gale Anne Hurd (Terminator, Aliens, and many many others) and director Jonathan Hensleigh (writer of Die Hard With a Vengeance, Armageddon, etc.) finds 2 couples traveling from Australia to Papua New Guinea to search for Michael Rockefeller, missing since 1961, and presumed to be living with the native cannibals.As the four set of into the jungle, the serious couple starts inexplicably acting horribly towards the fun partying couple and the four of them fight for days, seemingly for no reason, until they hate each other.The film flounders here for a bit as characters' actions and personality traits do a 180 and not a lot of their decisions make sense. One of them suddenly becomes a psychopath. Another screams incessantly every time she sees something she doesn't like, despite the fact that she is being stalked. I mean, wouldn't you be quiet if you were being pursued through the jungle?The film redeems itself near the end as the last 25 minutes or so are tense and scary with some nicely done practical effects. All in all worth a watch. 6/10.
mrush I thought this movie was gonna be good.It starts out at least looking a bit promising but then just when it finally gets to some good stuff it ends leaving you feeling unsatisfied and kind of mad.And let me add that this movie has absolutely nothing to do with Guns N Roses.2 couples set out to find the missing Michael Rockefeller ,who disappeared into the jungles of New Guinea in 1961 and was never heard from again.A rumor from a bush pilot sends the four out into the jungle to find Rockefeller and get rich and famous doing it.After one of the four steals some bones from a burial site the local natives get ticked off.But they might have anyway,who knows? This movie has nothing original to offer.We've seen the cannibal movies before and we've seen the shaky hand held movie documentary style filming before.My question with these supposed self shot movies is would a person really keep filming even after they realize their life is in danger ?Really? You gonna keep the camera light on out in the middle of the jungle at night with headhunters all around?I kinda think I'm gonna shut it off and hide like the sniveling coward I am.Anyway the movie goes along fine and then all of a sudden it's sort of wraps up all quick like and the credits roll.Did you boys run out of money or did you get tired of filming out in the hot jungle?It just abruptly quits before any good gore or terror gets going.Some night time quick glimpses of some gore is about it.No nudity at all even though you got 4 hot young folks out in the middle of nowhere taking swims and sunbathing and stuff like that.I can't recommend this movie ,it just never delivers on it's promise of terror and gore.
stevesevera If you like cannibal films, avoid this. If you like Horror films, avoid this. If you like films that are so bad they are good, AVOID THIS! All characters are annoying and god did I want them to die...but the pay off didn't really come. This film seemed pointless at all times, its like it was written by a 14 year old.4 idiots go in search of a missing billionaire or some such nonsense because they think they can make money...he's only been missing 30 odd bloody years though. They seem to know exactly where they are going, can build rafts in super quick time that are super sturdy, alert cannibals to their presence by screaming all the time, get off the raft despite being in danger then we don't even have the pleasure of seeing these annoying bastards get butchered, its a film with cannibals in...err...well, I can waste no more time on this, watch this if you hate yourself, otherwise go watch something way better by Ruggero Deodato
Pietruck This must be one of the worst and most annoying mockumentaries ever made....Follow 4 pampered twenty nothings as they quest to find another well to do never was former twenty nothing from 1961 rumored to be in the jungles of New Guinea after crashing off its coast 35 years earlier (or so the premise goes). On their stereotypical shallow "mis"adventure, you have your gun toting towny bandits, your angry bitter meaninglessly antagonizable militia, your sacred burial grounds complete with skulls and dress up skeletons, your creepy random forest dwelling Aussie guy appearing from and disappearing to nowhere warning the characters about said skulls and skeletons, your loin clothed flesh hungry forest locals outfitted with spears, body paint, and bows, and, oh yeah, the best part, your make shift rafts materializing out of nowhere made with no supplies yet seaworthy enough to float them down a river (that looks like a creek in Montana).....Ultimately, the dialog makes no sense and was often difficult to hear (which was a good thing considering the parts you can hear). The "home" video camera stylings fall apart almost immediately and watching becomes a chore. It was understood that this was low low low budget movie, but this was an absolute horror to watch.Don't say I didn't warn you!
