Review of The Green Inferno (2013) by Michael H — 31 Oct 2015

For anyone who thought the â??Hostelâ?? movies were a barrel of laughs but needed more cannibalism and less cultural sensitivity, helmer Eli Roth is finally back in theaters with â??The Green Inferno.

â?? This dopey homage to an infamously unappetizing subgenre of grindhouse filmmaking made its festival debut back in 2013 and endured an aborted release attempt last year â?? apt delays for a project that boasts all the appeal (and aroma) of a carcass rotting in the rainforest.

Ultimately unleashed as the first wide release from Blumhouseâ??s BH Tilt imprint, â??Infernoâ?? eked out a modest opening weekend on its way toward cult-item obscurity.
