I should have known after being made to sit through Knock Knock what I was in for, Eli Roth is an interesting character, he seems to want to make films that are different and challenging, the trouble is he just seems to miss the mark wildly.
The Green Inferno starts off quite brightly, it's sunny, cheerful, with lots of upbeat music, it isn't long before carnage descends, a group of student activists protesting at the culling of the Rainforest meet the locals....
At times the acting is bad, it is like as if the cast are larking about and not taking it overly seriously. Some of the effects were shaky to say the least, and the makeup of a few people was a bit naff.
Classed as a horror film, I don't really get why, grim as opposed to scary.
Do something more exciting with your life, like a crossword or wash the dishes, a much better way to spend ninety minutes of your life.
I'll rate it 3 instead of 1 as some of the locations are breathtaking. Overall though it is a terrible film. 3/10
