| User ReviewTim SThe only thing that Treasure of the Amazon (aka Greed) has going for it is its location work and work with real animals, and that's about it. It's a pretty deplorable and boring tale about two groups of people trying to find gold and/or diamonds in South America, and everything goes wrong when both the natives and greed take them out one by one. There are some shocking things about it. A man eats a live tarantula at one point, for example. It's almost like a more public-friendly version of Cannibal Ferox, or something like that. Or better yet, a harder-edged Romancing the Stone, but without the romance. It's not a great movie, and it struggles to keep up with its tiresome pace and characters you just don't care about. Actors Stuart Whitman and Donald Pleasence star in the film, but the rest of the cast I didn't recognize from anything. Rifftrax recently did a nice riffing on the film, which makes it just a little easier to swallow (pun intended). |
