About
If you enjoy grim 80s jungle exploitation with drug-war chaos, survival tension, and heavy gore, this may scratch the same itch as Cannibal Holocaust; Not for you if sexual violence, cruelty, or flimsy plotting are dealbreakers.
Pros: striking jungle locations; fast pulp energy; intense survival stakes | Cons: thin characters; messy story; very graphic violence
