The ending sucks, and makes no sense


So she decides to lie about what happened? Why? Itd make for a far better book to describe what happened, including that bit about how it took "superior civilization" to bring out the brutality of the natives. Very lame ending. I wanted to see another cool death, movie didn't have nearly enough of them.

Yeah, they should have killed her too, just for being so annoying

I would *beep* her

Really? With her mad hair?

I thought the ending was awesome, just because it made no sense. Kind of a "Oh, she lied, and science spins further into falsehood" type of thing; the last scene had a certain vague sense of doom about it, or something. Of course it didn't make sense, but what do you expect, it's Italian exploitation.

Although in reality, I'm sure she would've lied for the sake of being right, yeah that ending is terrible, and I found the film to be an overall disappointment.

I always think she got some kind of mental illness after all that happened

lieing to sell more copies and get her dissertation to be one of the more famous ones? Surely noone would ever do that!

I figured she didn't want anyone else to go out there to investigate her claims because the same thing would happen to them, so it was easier to lie.

Plus, that one guy whose manhood was cut off and eaten, pretty much deserved to die in a terrible way. Seeing what he did to the tribesman, my only thought was is that he's not getting out of this... Alive!

I'm so scared your little head will come off in my hands!
