The Green Inferno

A group of idealistic American students travel to the Amazon rainforest to protest against a corporation that is destroying the rainforest and threatening the lives of indigenous tribes. Their activism takes a horrifying turn when their small plane crashes, and they fall into the hands of a cannibalistic tribe.

The Green Inferno received mixed reviews from critics. While some praised its commitment to graphic horror and its throwback exploitation film style, many found the plot thin, the characters underdeveloped, and the violence gratuitous. Audience reception was similarly divided.

• Praised for its gory and intense horror sequences.
• Criticized for its predictable plot and lack of character development.
• Noted for its homage to classic cannibal horror films.

Google audience: Google users were split on 'The Green Inferno.' Many appreciated the film's visceral horror elements and Eli Roth's signature style, finding it a fun, albeit extreme, throwback. However, a significant portion of viewers found the violence excessive and the story to be lacking, with some expressing discomfort with the portrayal of the indigenous tribe.

Director Eli Roth was inspired to make the film after watching cannibal horror movies from Italy in the 1970s and 1980s, such as 'Cannibal Holocaust' and 'Jungle Holocaust'.
