"Welcome to the Jungle" tells the story of four spoiled and obnoxious Americans who set out into the jungles of New Guinea armed with a few digital cameras to find the missing Michael Rockefeller and make themselves rich by getting an exclusive interview with him. Of course they are captured and killed by the tribe of savages.I must admit that the story is fairly convincing and the location sets provide some spooky atmosphere,but the characters are dumb and annoying.I really wanted them to suffer painful death just not to listen their constant whining.Almost complete lack of gore and nudity is very disappointing.While Jonathan Hensleigh has denied that his film has anything to do with Ruggero Deodato's infamous "Cannibal Holocaust" the similarities are obvious(check out the girl impaled on bamboo stick).There are a couple of moments where the graphic special effects are actually done quite well,but the inane dialogue and my general hatred for half the cast reduced my enjoyment.Better watch "Cannibal Holocaust","Eaten Alive" or "Jungle Holocaust" again.
