How this got a R-rating is rather shocking in itself and it really makes you laugh when you watch something like this and think at one point something like SCREAM had to be cut to avoid a NC-17 rating. I think this film is going to shock, outrage and gross out the majority of the people who watch it as there's no question that this contains some of the most graphic and goriest violence that has ever been in an American film that had to go in front of the MPAA.

Again, it's really hard to judge this movie but I'm overly familiar with the Italian cannibal movies so let me get that out of the way. If you're familiar with those films then you're going to see THE GREEN INFERNO as a watered down American film.

If you have no idea what CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST, EATEN ALIVE and CANNIBAL FEROX are then there's a great chance that you're going to be shocked and horrified at what you see here. For the most part I don't think the film lived up to the hype but this is going to depend on your knowledge of the genre. After the movie was over I really didn't know what to think about it because there had been so much hype built around it. Eli Roth's homage to the Italian cannibal movies of the 70s and early 80s is a rather mixed bag. Their plan doesn't quite work when their plane crashes in the jungle and soon the survivors have the unlucky fate of being served up for dinner. The Green Inferno (2013) ** 1/2 (out of 4) A group of college students decide to head to South America where they're going to protest some developers who are damaging the rain forest and threatening a tribe that has lived there for thousands of years.
