This direct-to-DVD effort starts out as a Lost-type affair, with a group of disparate and unlikeable characters shipwrecked on a desert island, but soon veers in another direction to rip off Predator as well. After discovering the remains of an anthropologists’ camp, our anti-heroes discover that they’re sharing this picturesque spot with a tribe of primitive, flesh-eating hominids. The predictable developments are barely enlivened by the appearance of Lance Henriksen as a gun-toting bad-hat tasked with wiping out anyone who knows about this ‘lost tribe’. Turns out he works for the Catholic Church who are worried that this new discovery will prove the truth of evolutionary theory! Now, I was under the impression that they already knew about that.
