Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death
1989 Directed by J.F. Lawton
Synopsis
These women are serious about their taste in men.
The U.S. government, eager to protect the nation's avacado supplies, recruits feminist professor Margo Hunt to make contact with the Piranha Women, an all-female tribe who believe men are only good as a source of food. Accompanying Dr. Hunt on her trip are Jim, a guide of questionable competence, and Bunny, a student of unquestionable incompetence.

I was assigned this movie to watch for something called the "White Elephant Blogathon" (this gives you an idea what it's all about). With a title like that, how could it possibly be any good? And yet...
I expended about 1500 words on it at my own personal blog here. This was an unexpected delight to watch and write about—and I don't mean that in a condescending, "so bad it's good" way either.

This is so dumb, that its good again. Hilliarity guaranteed
-
Boring, bland, and not with one ounce of comedy... While it attempts to provoke laughter the only thing it succeeds at is putting the audience to sleep.

No matter what Kevin and Mark might tell you, this is funny.

This starts off promising (the US faces an avocado shortage and dispatches a professor of feminism to relocate the Eponymous tribe of Cannibals to Florida), but soon wastes the funny premise on juvenile, tired jokes.
You just know theres going to be a scene where Bill Maher's extremely annoying and slappable Indiana Jones parody knockoff character will find himself being marinated in a big pot, thinking it's a spa, and lo and behold...
Mark Kermode claims this is one of very few movies with titles like this that actually deliver on its premise. I say it's not a patch on Return of the Killer Tomatoes.
