    Very agreed, which I also find it odd that it's making it to theaters. Of course my concerns with it are Blumhouse are involved, which I cannot stand.

    Although hey, the film most likely will piss off social justice warriors, so there is that positive to go on.

    Anyway, according to the film's wiki page the production company ran into financial problems at one point or another, which resulted in the distributor (at the time) to pull out. That explains the release date change from Sept 2014 to 2015. Universal eventually picked it up for distribution. My guess is maybe there was still stuff needed to be done in post, but with money woes the distributor got cold feet perhaps? I dunno.
    That or distro and promtion cost some serious money as well. Plenty of finished films get shelved for one reason or another

    Oh cool, it's playing near me, I'll be sure to check this out. I'm sure it'll be fun and won't suck from too much hype. I'M SURE ELI ROTH WON'T BECOME A TOTAL HACK-FRAUD!!!...

    I'm just kidding, I'm sure it'll be good gory fun at best. Bring on the Cannibalism!

    Eli Roth's The Green Inferno is a fun movie with some delicious gore effects curtesy of Greg Nicetero and Howard Burger for the cannibal scenes it's too bad there's only a handful of gruesome deaths and how incredibly tame the movie seems to be.

    The characters are all cartoon characters with how they're written with the dialogue, I heard this movie is Eli Roth's big bald face fuck you to the SJWs for some reason it sounds like he just took a bunch of tweets and paste them on as dialogue which was weird.

    There's practical effects as well as some CGI but the practical effects steal the show but they're not met with grand potential as in it's good for what it is but it's just not enough to save the movie from being a decent-yet-disappointing experience.

    I also didn't know if I was supposed to feel uncomfortable or not about the cannibals portrayed in this movie but whatever.

    Also, the ending sucks too.

    The story is meh, nothing we haven't seen before, college kids gang up to stop the bulldozing of the rainforests only to find out -gasp- that it was a photo shoot for a company to beat another company at destroying the forests and the natives in it...it was confusing and stupid but it wouldn't be an issue if it was just an all out crazy cannibal movie and the middle part to the end has some good highlights but nothing creative and there's not much to call extreme since it's edited weirdly to where you almost don't see a lot of the gory bits happening most of the time.

    That also wouldn't have been an issue if the movie was played more straight and serious for suspense and left to the mind how horrible it feels but the movie isn't going for seriousness. But if it's suppose to be a fun movie for the most part I wish it could have gone crazier like eating children or something.

    But as it is, it's okay, it's not the worst thing ever but it's nothing special either. Sorry, Eli.

    5/10

    I have been saying it for many months now in this very thread, this movie is bad. The Roth humor totally deconstructs what a cannibal movie truly is.
    And yes the ending is one of the worst I have seen.

    I'll bring it up again...those CGI ants

    So many of those CGI ants...I guess that was the best "torture" device Eli could come up with, but whatever.

    I'll be honest and say I was thinking of going to see it over the weekend, but I never built up enough ambition to go to the theater. Usually if I don't make it during the first week of release I usually wait for dvd

    Eli Roth is a name most who go to movies at a theater would recognize, i was more surprised when it was going straight to video....digital.

    They can't be that stupid and naive though spending millions on advertisements, something they would not have done if it was on VOD instead of theatrical release. It was shelved for financial reasons to begin with so why waste all that money? They knew they were going against a kids movie that was more than likely going to dominate the BO, and it did plus other quality movies already out there.

    This should have been VOD all the way, not that would have made the pill this is a horrible movie any easier to swallow.

    I only gave it a 4 because I honestly thought it had a couple of cool shots/scenes. Now that I think about it the whore/drug addict friend of the main character drops this from a 4 to a 3. She looked like she should of been the main character in the movie powder
