Justine (Lorenza Izzo) is a college freshman. She is struggling to find her place. She hooks up with an activist group on campus and the next thing she knows, she is flying to the Amazon to protect a local tribe from the bulldozers of an encroaching energy company. The group, headed by Alejandro (Ariel Levy) is told to chain themselves to the bulldozers and start filming. The bulldozers are forced to back off and the group heads back home thinking that they have foiled the evil corporation and protected the indigenous people. Until their plane crashes on the way home and they are captured by that indigenous tribe - which turns out to be full of cannibals. One by one, they become dinner for these cannibals. Will anyone survive and make it back to civilization?

This is not a very good movie. The acting is pretty weak along with the storyline. The main focus of the movie is to gross you out by showing cannibals cooking and eating body parts. That is definitely gross. One by one the group is picked off. There is some suspense - will anyone make it out alive?? and a little bit of a twist but overall, this is a very average horror flick. And, of course, they set it up at the end for a possible sequel. You can probably skip this one and the sequel.
