The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

The acting in this movie is really good.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

This is really rather good and much under rated. Unfortunately it gets put amidst the T&A 'bad' B movie category where it just doesn't belong, although ironically it does begin that way with incompetent men and near naked women bathing in a waterfall. Once properly underway, however, this is a funny film with Bill Maher reminding one of early Robin Williams and cutie, Karen Waldron doing a perfect impression of Goldie Hawn. Shannon Tweed is surprisingly good in the main lead and works well with the others thanks to such a very good script. This is not funny like Airplane and the remit, social satire on sexual politics is a bit narrow but it really is enough to keep you smiling. The scantily clad women are something of a bonus but would be a great disappointment for anyone seeking this out for that reason, and hence, I guess , the less than deserved acclaim this film tend to get. Very much worth a watch.

Don't you just love the title! The movie is just as subtle (haha!) It's no mistake that this film is such a cult classic. To best describe the plot, imagine APOCALYPSE NOW with feminism. The government hires a feminist Dr. Margo Hunt, played by the wonderful Shannon Tweed, to travel to an uncharted region called the Avocado Jungle to make contact with a tribe of cannibals called the Piranha Women. Along for the ride is one of her students Bunny, who questions her feminist views while fantasizing about red licorice, and a male chauvinist guide played by Bill Maher. As it turns out, the Piranha Women are ruled by a Dr. Kurtz (played by the always lovely and deliciously zany Adrienne Barbeau.) From there, wackiness and love ensues, along with numerous arguments between men and women's rights. This movie might even make a stoic feminist crack a smile. So gather together your friends willing to hang up their views, and prepare to roll in the aisles with laughter. And hopefully not spilt booze!

This is a movie that keeps you giggling for at least three days. I had a hard time to find it, but it was very worth the chase. First, you must look and see some of the original (sleazy) Italian Cannibal movies from the 1970's. Then you have to read the critics on badmovies.org (funny). And then you are all set to enjoy this one. But don't spend your best whiskey on it.Producer and director J.F.Lawton also made 'Under Siege' (1992) and 'Pretty Woman' (1990) and it shows. It is low-budget but it is professionally made, it is funny, clever, hilarious, campy, culty, whatever.Imagine a team of a woman feminist professor, an air-headed teeny bunny and a Crocodile Dundee look-alike going on a jungle expedition - you can't. That's why you must see to believe. In the first half hour you are treated with some not-so-subtle quotes of at least 5 other movies, including Rambo, Superman, Ninja's and Indiana Jones. The quest in the movie is to take out evil Ms. Kurtz - an obvious reference to Cl. Kurtz (Marlon Brando - Apocalypse Now). The end of the Miss is also comparable to that of the Colonel. No surprise that Quentin 'Quote' Tarantino liked this movie. Don't get fooled too much by the culty/campy stamps that are around about this 1989 movie. It is treating some radical feminist issues in a ironic, even sarcastic way. The movie fuelled some fierce discussions on some campuses - but that is all history now.I give it an 8 out of 10 for the great fun.

I personally, find this movie so delightfully trashy as to be the epitomy of what "B" films are SUPPOSED to be about: implausible situations, done with the tongue firmly embedded in the cheek, tweeking the audience every chance they get.
