| 02.14.06 | Netflix | I feel like this is a little bit of a bait & switch here because although this old dude did eat a bit of human flesh once, the movie talks about it for maybe 3 minutes (at the very beginning and very end) and the rest is your standard anthropologist, old-guy-returns-to-jungle doc. It's a lot like Tigrero except instead of salty old Sam Fuller and Jim Jarmusch going around, it's a gay dude with a bad hip. Still interesting of course, but not enough cannibalism. Everyone from the New Guinean and Peruvian tribes interviewed want to forget their violent man-eating past so... it kind of takes the wind out of that awesome title. |
