Streaming fans getting hungry for a flavorless cannibal horror

Most of the time, you know exactly what you’re going to get from a horror movie revolving around cannibalism. In a similar vein, seeing Eli Roth’s name attached as director lets you know that you’ll need a strong stomach to make it through. Put the two together, and The Green Inferno delivers on both fronts.

To his credit, though, the godfather of torture porn does at least try to inject some satire into the proceedings, even if he misses the mark by roughly a country mile. A bright-eyed college student comes into the path of a fellow student and activist when he goes on a hunger strike to support underpaid janitors at their college. Given the content of the film, the foreshadowing is about as subtle as a sledgehammer to the face.
