This isn't a "horror" movie. Yes, it's horrifying but the visual effects don't make it a horror movie. The story isn't great but if you want to see college students getting chopped up and eaten you'll love this. It's really just an a experience.

A girl ends up on a missionary trip to Peru to save the rainforest from getting bulldozed, meanwhile her peers are very un-likable, but doesn't draw from the film because of what happens to them later, plus there is some good acting among certain characters. The film is funny how it portrays the arrogance of the young adults, the leader being all about the attention and fame he'll get from it. Sh*t gets real when their plane crashes and the survivors are captured by the tribe they are trying to save, turns out they are viscous cannibals! Actors actually were in the Peruvian jungle with a real tribe that willingly and happily participated in the making of the film. One tribe member even offered director Eli Roth a very young child when leaving as a gift, Roth refused politely. All in all a very fun movie despite all the negative reviews. Honestly you know what you're getting into so fans of the genre should be pleased.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Some college kids (social justice warriors) travel to Peru in order to protest miners cutting down trees while looking for precious minerals. The students put themselves in harm's way as the miners have armed guards, but the tech-savvy SJWs protect themselves by live streaming the whole event via their cell phones. They were a smashing success and are soon trending over Twitter worldwide. As they are departing the country, their plane crashes into the jungle. The liberal do-gooders are greeted by the local Indian tribe who teach them a lesson in multiculturalism. Soon, the great liberators return (in the form of White men with bulldozers and rifles...kinda like Rainforest Schmainforest when Cartman was rescued from the green hell), but are too late to save more than one of the bleeding-hearts. A similar formula to the jungle-cannibal films popular in the late 70s/early 80s (the best being: Massacre in Dinosaur Valley, Eaten Alive!, Cannibal Holocaust, Cannibal Ferox, Jungle Holocaust, Emanuelle and the Last Cannibals, and Mountain of the Cannibal God). Very strange there was minimal nudity (the Indians were even prudish) despite rather grisly depiction of torturous violence.… Expand

This review is for a certain type of horror fan. I know this is a movie that will disgust most people. I get that. But some of us really enjoy watching stupid college kids get brutally murdered.

But some of us really enjoy watching stupid college kids get brutally murdered. I don't know why. I don't question it. So if you're like me and you get a huge thrill out of excessive blood and gore, then I think you will enjoy this film. There are some very creative death scenes here. And with Howard Berger handling the special effects, you know there won't be any pulled punches. There is one scene in particular where a fat guy gets his eyes and tongue pulled out and his limbs hacked off one by one. Then his torso and head are baked and eaten by the entire tribe. If that sounds like a good time to you, then what are you waiting for? Go see this movie with a bunch of friends and laugh your ass off.… Expand

Hope you have a strong stomach for this one. Extremely gory. The ending was ok if you believe in forgiveness.

This plays nicely as a documentary about the state of American higher education and political activism. Plenty of movies have killed off unwitting college students, but this one hits at the heart of what people are feeling and thinking rightThis plays nicely as a documentary about the state of American higher education and political activism. Plenty of movies have killed off unwitting college students, but this one hits at the heart of what people are feeling and thinking right now, and its characters feel very much like the sort of people you'd see at a rally.

As a horror movie, eh, not great. You kind of know what you're in for. The gore is gory, sure. But strangely enough, it isn't as bad as it could have been. It's the sort of movie where virtually every line is a setup for some later event, and at some point it starts to feel like you're completing a checklist. At its best, its seething social commentary, juxtaposing the cannibals with what most people would call normal animal agriculture. At its worst, it's just cheesy.

The tribal aspect is somewhat fascinating. The two identifiable leaders obviously don't belong, but the rest of them are real tribespeople. On the surface, it's a nasty depiction of them that calls back to past horrors of the real world. And yet, one hardly walks out of this movie thinking that the uncontacted peoples of the Amazon are the bad guys of the world.

All told, it's an interesting and subversive concept, not really fully executed.… Expand

This is not a terrible movie. The storyline is fairly good and it kept at least two people's attention throughout.

The storyline is fairly good and it kept at least two people's attention throughout. There are some elements of the plot that don't make a whole lot of sense, but really, do we go to horror movies to learn anything? Heck no! We want to be scared! Once the action gets going, my friend and I had to hide our eyes a few times, but we knew that going in. What we didn't know was how bad - or not - it was going to be. We are not so much fans of the gory genre, but even though this one is pretty darn gory, we got through it and shared a few laughs to get through it. Not sure the ending made any sense at all. We were kind of shaking our heads as we left. But, we felt that in spite of the gore, it was not bad. Can't believe I am saying that!… Expand

If you love a gritty, gory, suspenseful horror movie the Green Inferno is for you. It lacks in certain areas like character building and the CGI isn't great, but I loved it.
