Fun throwback to the cannibal genre
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Eli Roth is polarizing as a director- with fans of his loving him, while detractors can't hide their displeasure of his horror stories relying far too much on gore. I fall more in-line with his fans. He's mostly a one-trick pony, for sure, but over the top gore doesn't bother me. He may rely on rivers of red stuff in his stories, but I find it to be a nice throwback to the late 70s/ early 80s gore helmed by directors such as Herschel Gordon Lewis, as well as a better option than the other direction horror has become: ineffective PG13 films made specifically to get more ticket sales by allowing younger audience members in seats. Green Inferno is Roth's love letter to the infamous Italian Cannibal films of his (and my) youth, and for the most part, it's a solid effort. In an unusual step for Roth, ESPECIALLY considering the source material and his previous films, he comes off as holding back. While it doesn't kill the film, it makes me wonder what it might have been. A full 45 minutes pass before we even come across the cannibals in this film, and once we do, Roth seems to rush the kills after a pretty twisted first casualty. Where Roth's body counts throughout his movies always seem to let the audience "relish" each death, these within the Green Inferno come and go quickly, with the final kill, seemingly being one that was great on paper, just falling short, sadly. In fact, on more than a few occasions throughout the film, not only are the kills less than what fans are used to, but logic, character consistency, and lingering questions are just left open. For a director known for excess, it's a bit disheartening to end the film with viewers wanting more instead of feeling like they were given more than they could take. With all these negatives, Green Inferno falls into 3rd place (out of 4 Roth films) in my order of enjoyment. I still believe the original Cabin Fever and Hostel are his best works. However, even falling into that slot, it's STILL better than ALL but a few of the overproduced PG13 "horror" films Hollywood keeps pumping out, trying to convince us it belongs in that genre. Overall, the kills are not up to what I've come to expect from Roth (with the exception of the first one, which very well may be one of his best) but they're still better than most. The story is fast-paced and brisk (don't worry about the first 45mins being cannibal-free. It sets up the story very well) and has the better than average character interaction that has become a Roth staple. Even the obvious people to die are more than interchangeable camp counselors. I may sound harsh on my negatives, but this is still a great purchase- one that even after seeing it in a theater, I added to my home library.

Gory jungle fun
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been a fan of Eli Roth since the beginning. He's a fellow movie nerd that managed to get pictures made, and has more recently been helping other folks get pictures made. It had been many years since Roth had done a film of his own, and with both GREEN INFERNO & KNOCK KNOCK being remake/homages, I had mild trepidations. INFERNO, structurally, is very much like its blueprint, CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST, with one major acception (and my only real disappointment): humor. There are broad strokes of silly humor that feel distracting & unnecessary. Beyond that, I felt like the score was mismatched, but not wrong or inappropriate, so I'll chalk that up the personal taste. I'm glad to see the man getting into the director's chair again, and I hope more uniquely original material will follow!

"They've got the munchies!!"
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unlike the Italian cannibal films Roth is paying homage to, the Green Inferno isn't frightening, but rather a fun campy ride through the jungle with a group of students so arrogant and annoying you'll be happy to watch them get eaten!! Blu-ray quality was excellent and there are some nice special features included. It's not the gore fest I was expecting, but there should be enough bloody action to keep you satisfied. Grab a bowl of popcorn and enjoy the ride!

A Horrifyingly Good Eli Roth Film
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This film is unsettling, especially considering it could actually happen. Eli Roth does an amazing job at crafting a horror story that builds fear with the things you see & with what you don't see... allowing for a truly visceral experience. Characters expertly brought to life, beautiful scenery, a cautionary tale with not so black and white morals, and frightening situations... The Green Inferno is a good, creative horror movie.

Not Terrible but Could've been a little Better
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Green Inferno revolves around Justine, a college student who joins a group of activists who plan on helping a forest in the Amazon from being destroyed. However, their plane crashes and the activists are eventually kidnapped by a cannibalistic tribe and must do everything they can do to get rescued before they are eaten. The movie is directed by Eli Roth, who has directed a few good horror movies like Cabin Fever and Hostel, and his wife Lorenza Izzo plays Justine in this movie. The movie wasn't as good as I was hoping it would but it wasn't terrible either. The movie has it's fair share of suspense and some unrelentingly gruesome deaths that most definitely adds to the horror tone of the movie. One of the biggest flaws with the movie is some of the characters being a little bland and boring to a certain extent. In the end, The Green Inferno is not one of Eli Roth's best movies but it does show that he can work well with the horror genre. If you like some of Eli Roth's movies, you'll probably enjoy this movie.

The Green Ferroxocaust
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The selling point was that this was the director's cut, yet rewatching it from seeing it in the theater, I didn't notice anything different. Which is fine, I enjoyed the movie for what it was, but I was hoping for an unrated version with even more gore.

Beware the Jungle
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Interesting concept for a horror movie. Interesting for the simple fact that it is not too far-fetched a concept. An aspiring activist wants to gain the attention of a guy and so she joins his group. They plan on saving the rain forest from a company and try to save its indigenous tribe. That is when the fun begins...beware the mysteries of the jungle.

woah
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don't watch on a full stomach! I have seen Hostel and it kind of bothered me, I am not into gruesome movies, but this movie bumped it up a level. I was a bit lost at the end when the survivor lied and said the people were nice. In the end of the credits though, I though it was funny when they said to the people of Peru, they look forward to dining with them again! HA!!

Must see for fans of extreme cinema!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Green Inferno is of course not a film for the faint of heart. It is very extreme and violent. But if you are interested in extreme horror films, you should definitely watch this film. And this is another quality blu ray release from Scream Factory!

Green Inferno's a decent gorefest
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you've seen Cannibal Holocaust, you'll see the similarities in this one. I personally think The Green Inferno could've been a little better and a little gorier, but overall I thought it was a pretty good movie. The effects are amazing how real the torture, mutilated bodies look and the way it ended, well I'll let you watch for yourself.

Must for Eli Roth fans.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you're a fan of Eli Roth's you probably know about his obsession with "Cannibal Holocaust", so this film was inevitable. Not as gory as you might think, especially compared to the Hostel films but it is entertaining and if you're already a fan, you'll more than likely enjoy. Beautiful locations and scary cannibals. What's not to like?

Its a OK movie.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its OK . Not great not awful as some have said. Pros: Look of the movie is amazing. Cast was pretty solid and the premise was interesting. Movie felt like a throwback to older horror. Cons: Really not that "more brutal" than other horror movies. Kinda boring at times actually. The ending was awful and kinda dumb.

Homage to the cannibal films.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I actually like this movie I can watch it over and over it is a regular rotation in my horror collection. It's not as bloody graphic as Cannibal Holocaust, but it's still a great watch. If you can withstand gore and wanna see some people eat people it's for you.

Another excellent movie by Eli Roth
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ive seen a few of the cannibal movies that are considered classics such as Cannibal Holocaust & Cannibal Ferox , but I have to say this is definetly a future classic. A group of activists go to the jungle for their cause, things go wrong, they get caught by a cannibal tribe & things get very bad from there. The gore effects are very well done & the kills brutal so if that's not your thing then please avoid this movie. The cast does a good job, one in particular makes you dislike him so much you want something really bad to happen to him. Eli Roth knows how to scare you as well as make you laugh. I am anxiously awaiting his new remake of his classic film , Cabin Fever which opens on February 12, 2016.

Cannibal Carnage

Heck of a Roth film!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Eli Roth definitely likes to make gritty films. This film is personally my favorite and I like the take on cannibalism. There really aren't too many cannibal films out there so this makes this movie unique. Highly recommended it!

Good movie.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I went into this thinking it would be just a huge gore fest. It didn't disappoint in that regard. It was your typical group of college kids go to a foreign country and get in way over their heads kind of movie. I enjoyed it.
