Why Lenzi Why?????.......2007-01-01

This movie shows us Lenzi at his weakest, considering it was done by Lenzi I thought this movie was going to be alot better, but I was mistaken. I found myself fast forwarding through the whole movie. I do not know how this get's classified as a Cannibal movie, it is far from it. If your a Lenzi fan and your on the fence about purchasing this film, do not do it the movie is not what you think it is. The only good this about this movie is seeing Me Me Lai naked, and that is the only reason I gave this movie 1 star.

Cult classic for sure.......2006-07-15

Wow I can't believe this movie got two reviews. It's an incredible beautifully shot and directed film by Umberto Lenzi.
The other reviews I don't understand at all what the heck they were expecting maybe "Cannibal Holocuast". An excellent movie about a man whose life changes and how he adapts himself to a dramatic situation. This is the type of movie that shows how man will do anything to survive once he lives in a world that doesn't take order from the outside world.

Very well, Isaac Rassimov does a great job of acting and narrating the tale. Basically a photo journalist of sorts from London who gets captured by a tribe. The tribe does many bad things to him and he observes how they brand out justice to any strangers tresspassing on their land. Eventually one of the girls
(saving his life in the process) takes a liking to him and they become lovers. The musical score for this movie is amazing. Again , it's beautiful shot and some of the scenes showing the wildlife and locales will take your breath away guaranteed. Umberto Lenzi is best known for making average horror movies including a horrible called "NightMare City" but this is by his best and most remembered movie to date. The DVD features are thin but this is a great movie. Highly recommended.

LOL! WHERE THE HELL IS RICHARD HARRIS?.......2005-12-18

IS IT JUST ME, OR DOES THIS MOVIE BARE A STRIKING RESEMBLENCE TO "A MAN CALLED HORSE"? IT STARTS OUT LIKE THE SOFT CORE "EMMANUEL" FILMS OF THE 1970'S AND QUICKLY DECENDS INTO A B-RATE EXPLOITATION FLICK. THE PLOT TAKES A BACKSEAT TO NUDITY, GORY VIOLENCE, AND A SESPENSION OF REALITY. THE MAIN CHARACTER WALKS OUT ON A BEAUTIFUL BLONDE GIRLFRIEND AS IF SHE WERE A 2 DOLLAR HOOKER, KILLS A GUY IN A BAR FIGHT, GOES OFF ON SOME UNDERWATER PHOTO EXPEDITION, AND GETS FISHED OUT OF A RIVER BY A GROUP OF JUNGLE NATIVES WHO HAVE NEVER SEEN A WHITE MAN BEFORE. HE IS PUT TO WORK DRIVING WOODEN POSTS INTO THE RIVER BANK WHILE SURROUNDED BY BEAUTIFUL NATIVE GIRLS WHO JUST HAPPEN TO BE COMPLETELY NAKED!(WOWZERS!) ONE OF THE GIRLS TAKES A LIKING TO HIM AND HE MUST ENDURE COMBAT AND TORTURE TO PROVE HIS BRAVERY AND VALUE AS A MEMBER OF THEIR TRIBE. (LIKE I SAID, DOESN'T THIS PLOT SOUND FAMILIAR?)
FROM A PURLY EXPLOITATIONAL POINT OF VIEW, "MAN FROM DEEP RIVER" IS A SURE CLASSIC. IT HAS EVERYTHING THE 13 YEAR OLD BOY INSIDE ALL OF US CRAVES: EXOTIC GIRLS, TRIBAL MEN WHO DONT CARE IF YOU FOOL AROUND WITH THEIR SISTERS, BAR FIGHTS, PRIMATIVE WARFARE, AND CANNIBALISM. NOT TOO BAD, AS LONG AS YOU DONT TAKE THE STORYLINE SERIOUSLY.

Man from Sleep River.......2005-04-06

"The Man from the Deep River" as the credits show, is not what I expected. The box indicates that it is in the vein of all the other Italian cannibal movies. This is not the case as the film is more of a action adventure with little gore or horrific images. Basically, the plot is that a photographer gets stranded in the jungle and is captured by a native tribe. He eventually gains their acceptance and falls in love. He must ultimately decide if he should stay with the tribe or return to civilization. The director is widely known for his gross out movies but this is not really one of them. There are a few scenes of real animal killings and one sequence of cannibalism but other than that, there is nothing going on. Not much to recommend with this film, some good cinematography of the jungle locales, the one cannibalism scene, and that is about all. The DVD sports an interview with director Lenzi that is pretty good. He talks about how his one cannibalism scene was the first in the history of Italian cinema and a few other anecdotes about the movie. Not worth buying (like I did) but perhaps a rental.
