Review by paul_m_haakonsen

I was previously familiar with the 1988 Italian movie "Paradiso Infernale" by its English title "The Green Inferno" and I remember having seen the movie once, many, many years ago. So as I had the opportunity to sit down to watch the movie again here in 2023, I opted to do so. And I have to admit that I had fully and wholly forgotten about the storyline of the movie.

It sort of amazes me that writers Antonio Climati, Marco Merlo, Francesco Prosperi, Federico Moccia and Lorenzo Castellano could collectively manage to put together such a weak script and storyline for a movie. I suppose that five writers and creative minds working on a script just simply was diluting the creative output.

I found very little entertainment in "Paradiso Infernale", and I guess that is why I had forgotten all about the storyline here, because there was nothing noteworthy to be witnessed throughout the course of the 90 minutes that the movie ran for.

The acting performances in "Paradiso Infernale" were adequate enough. Needless to say that I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble.

"Paradiso Infernale" is not a particularly outstanding movie experience, and for a movie such as this, with a cannibal theme, then there are actually far better and more enjoyable movies out there from around that same era of cinema.

My rating of "Paradiso Infernale" lands on a three out of ten stars.
