=====================A film about vengeance and love all set to the back drop of a brutal jungle.
The film revolves around Catherine Miles who after graduating is treated by her parents to a holiday trip into the Amazon, as you do?
Unfortunately her parents are violently murdered by a cannibalistic tribe and then promptly eaten. She survives and is kept by the tribe. Whilst there one of the native falls for her, not surprising as she spends most of the movie naked, and he aids in her escape but all the while she is planning a devious and gruesome revenge on the tribe. However due to some barmy and frankly daft twists in the film plot it turn out that… well lets just say there are 'other' people involved in her folks death.
A beautifully shot movie which is violent at time and not really that well acted. The dialogue is fine and the acting from the lead, Catherine is very good. But it just doesn't hang together and goes of the boil half way through the film.
Watch it if your bored otherwise give it a miss.

Sounds a bit grim - is it based on a true story? Lexy
