In a broad sense, The Green Inferno merely transports the Hostel formula to another continent, with a group of naïve young Americans unwittingly offering themselves up for the slaughter. But true to Roth's other work, it can't be taken on its face. On its face, The Green Inferno is a supremely offensive depiction of an ancient Amazon tribe as vicious savages with a taste for human flesh. And it once again finds Roth playing deliberately-and more than a bit recklessly-in the real world and movie world by tucking a critique of campus 'slacktivism' within a feature-length homage to notorious exploitation movies like Cannibal Holocaust and Cannibal Ferox. Though it spent two years in legal purgatory after premiering at the Toronto Film Festival in September 2013, Roth's latest provocation, The Green Inferno, nonetheless arrives right on time to stoke Internet outrage. Roth always has a foot in two different worlds: The real world, where the headlines and trends of the day are thematic grist for the mill, and the movie world, where gore and depravity are part of longstanding grindhouse tradition. (The clever, double-meaning title could be read as 'hostile.') He also helped open the floodgates for the hard-R subgenre known as 'extreme horror' in some circles and 'torture porn' in others, depending on where certain critics drew the line-and whether they were willing to have a line at all. When horror auteur Eli Roth broke into the mainstream with Hostel in 2005, he tapped into a primal fear among Americans, post-9/11, that foreign countries were inhospitable to yankees abroad. Eli Roth's latest torture flick takes down young activists who crash into the Amazon jungle.
