La isla de los caníbales

I only created an account here in Imdb just to say this...

This movie is awful, literally the worst movie i ever seen ( and i seen a lot), the movie doesn't have any sense, doesn't explain anything and all the deaths of the Characthers are off-screen

Im kinda depressed now, because i lost 90 minutes of my life i never get back

I apologize for my english, im not a native speaker.

It is hard to fill ten lines of comment for this movie. What has to be said? Well, the monsters are monstrous, the girl pretty (in some common way), the island mysterious. All of them do their job. Cinematography is not that bad, you just get the sense of people lost in a wild forest. Of course the writer had to fill some space with irrelevant anthropology about characters that are not even mean enough to deserve such misfortune or so nice to make you cry. As a matter of facts monsters look more interesting and complex. I would have liked that some destiny, or original sin had pushed the humans to that place. It would have meant some stars more.

I first saw this more than a decade back on a dvd which I own. Got enticed into buyin the dvd cos of the trailer n the concept of creatures on an uninhabited island. Revisited it recently but fast forwarded most boring scenes. The creatures are not scary, the killings are offscreen n the most dumbest thing is the ending.

Five pals are marooned on a secluded n uninhabited island after their boat crashes. They are hunted n killed off by creatures which do not just kill for territorial issues but rather for their savage nature. One of the pal is able to find out the weakness about the creatures n uses it to her advantage.

Basically a poor n cheap version of Descent, Predator, Wolfman, etc. The faces of the creatures n their bodies r ripped off from Ford Coppola's Dracula (the beast in the garden). The lead babe resembles a slimmer version of Rosamund Pike.

The film has three different titles, so be careful n try avoiding this film to save ur time. The names r, After Dusk They Come, The Tribe n The Forgotten Ones.

I have the dvd of its remake too. Surprisingly, the producers remade it in just one year with a new director, script, and cast, under the title The Lost Tribe. Will revisit the movie n post a review.

It's rough being on an island with a creature that kinda looks like Predator crossed with Cha-Ka from Land of the Lost. There's no real plot so to speak, just a final girl and a machete for the most part.

The plot summary on the back sounded somewhat interesting, so I rented this one tonight. I just finished watching it.

Overall, there's just not much to say about it. Everything is slightly worse than mediocre. The movie falls into that ugly gap between being so bad it's entertaining and being an honestly good movie. The four "characters" are basically non-existent and there's close to no background about the "monsters". Speaking of those, they aren't even especially gruesome in any way, neither regarding their looks nor their practices. The film tries to get some tension going, but it just didn't work for me at all. The plot is as foreseeable as it could be right from the start, not a single surprise to be found and the ending is very, very... unsatisfying.
