Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death

1989 · 89 min

A silly, self-aware spoof that plays like a beach-blanket B-movie with jokes about feminism and talk shows.

Directed by
J.F. Lawton
Genres
Horror, Comedy, Adventure
Tagline
These women are serious about their taste in men.
Overview
The U.S. government, eager to protect the nation's avocado 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.
How it feels
Absurd, satirical, campy and light. Brisk and easy to follow.
