I made this thread as I couldn't find another like it on here,and I thought it might be a good idea for us to rate,and give a little review,of the last movie we watched.(and no Vinny,before you ask,I dont mean porno's) All I ask is to include the IMDb link,and try not to give away any 'spoilers',or if you are,give a 'spoiler alert' message!.
OK,I will start with....
The Green Inferno (2013)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2403021/
Now,this is a modern day version of the classic Italian 'Cannibal' movies of the late 70's to early 80's,I include the likes of 'Cannibal Holocaust','Mountain of the Cannibal God','Deep River Savages','Eaten Alive','Cannibal Ferox',and the like,and it was directed by Eli Roth.
So what is it like?...Well...Not bad,but not really up to the (sick) standards of the likes of 'Cannibal Holocaust' (the fully uncut version),which IMO,is probably the best of the cannibal movies,in regards to sheer gut churning SFX,and a really depraved story line!,but it is watchable,it is fairly entertaining (if you like that sort of thing...LOL!),and the story line isn't all that bad.
The acting isnt up to much mind.The main character,a student/wannabe activist, is pretty 'wooden' to say the least,but she makes up for it later in the movie!.
There was also a few plot gaps,that were left unanswered,which really narks me at the best of times,but all in all,it wasn't a bad movie,just not as good as what has been done before!.
And the CGI is crap in some parts too!.If,like me,you were a child of the 70's/80's,who was a horror film fanatic,and you watched all the 'video nasties' pre 83,before that old hag Mary Whitehouse got them banned,or worst still,had all the 'good bits' cut out,then you will wonder what all the fuss is about,as this movie is relatively mild in comparison to most of them!.BUT,if your ideal night in,means watching 'TITANIC' with the SWMBO,be warned,you wont be seeing any 'action' once those credits roll....
All in all I give this movie a 6.5/10
