Mountain of the Cannibal God
Directed by Sergio Martino
In Sergio Martino’s (TORSO) criminally underrated contribution to the Italian cannibal subgenre, a woman (Bond babe Ursula Andress) hires a professor (Stacey Keach) to guide her and her brother into the jungle where her anthropologist husband mysteriously disappeared. But after a scary start, the trio team up with an explorer and head towards Ra Ra Me, the “mountain of the cannibal god”, where a tribe of flesheaters lurks in the shadows, waiting patiently (with a honey marinade) for their latest meal to arrive. Trust us, this one’s best watched on an empty stomach...
A woman and her brother enlist a professor to guide them into the jungle where a cannibal tribe lives.

This is the R version of the Disneyland Jungle Boat Ride. Enjoy, but not much scare but a little gore. 2 skull by today's standard, but 3 skull for its own era.
The story line was good, but nature scenes worth the watch.
During this entire movie I had the same look on my face as the lizard at time of 1:20
Pretty bad, pretty boring. Not even exploity enough to make it entertaining. If you want a movie to play in the background while you look at your phone this is it.
A fun romp that at times would hardly be recognized as a horror film. Right away you will find real life gore and death as this film was clearly made before anyone cared about torturing and killing animals in movies. The editing in this film is ironically hilarious. The score was guffaw provoking, mimicking mid-2000 era video games like The Sims, while punctuating the montages of traipsing through the jungle, while good naturedly revealing the sociopathy of one of the lead characters. Overall, a worth while journey.
