Review:
This definitely has a lot in common with "Zombie (Zombi 2)", it's got the same idea to begin with, a bunch of people are going out into the jungle for research I believe. Another reason the two appear similar is that this film borrows scenes from "Zombie (Zombi 2)" not to mention some tribal scenes from "Cannibal Ferox" but at least the scenes here are blended a little better than in say "Hell Of The Living Dead". Anyhow this at least is coated in gore, and well let me throw it out there "death by motorboat blade". It's actually sort of a comedic version of "Zombie (Zombi 2)" but cheesier. I'm sure fans of zombie/cannibal films will want to see this, just don't expect originality or a classic, it's just plain fun.

Availability:  On DVD
