Eine Wissenschaftlerin Gloria macht sich mit ihrem Bruder Gary und dem Freund Pat auf die Reise an den Amazonas, weil sie beweisen will, daß es dort keine Kannibalen mehr gibt. Dort angekommen treffen sie auf zwei Männer, die behaupten, von Eingeborenen, die auch Kannibalen sein sollen, gefangengenommen worden zu sein, allerdings konnten sie sich befreien und fliehen. Wie sich bald zeigt, werden diese Eingeborenen von Weißen als Sklaven im Drogenanbau gehalten, sind mit diesem Leben allerdings nicht zufrieden und revoltieren nun gegen ihre Herren. Und es sind tatsächlich Menschenfresser! (Verleiher-Text)

The cannibal film "Women from the Deep River" is simply a myth. There is a lot of talk about it, a cult has been created around it, but the fact that an actress of Czech origin plays in it is perhaps the biggest curiosity, at least for Czech audiences. It's not worth it because it's just "Cannibal" again, not any better and rather worse. Watching essentially the same thing twice is quite boring and a waste of time.

The Italian splatter flicks from 1970s and 80s set in the jungle are all the same, with dirty hairy natives pretending to be absent in spirit, detailed images of animal killings (among other things, here again a tortoise, a worthy victim of Italian the trashers). There are also some splatter scenes here and there, including the tried-and-tested cutting off of a penis seen in other genre-related films, which in this one is also combined with its consumption. All this is wrapped up in the story of a scientific expedition exploring the life of cannibals, which meets two drug dealers who are terrorizing a local tribe. Of course, the Indians ain't putting up with it, which is a good excuse to unleash a splatter orgy. All in all, taken as "study material" on what was also filmed, it's survivable in one viewing. But really one.
