Synopsis by Jeremy Wheeler
Screenwriter turned filmmaker Jonathan Hensleigh (The Punisher) delivers a tale inspired by true events that follows two couple's trek through the cannibal-infested jungles of New Guinea in search for Michael Rockefeller, the lost beneficiary of the Rockefeller estate whose fabled to still be living in the wild after his disappearance during a 1961 expedition. Reportedly holding more than a few ties to Ruggero Deodato's cult jungle gross-out Cannibal Holocaust, Hensleigh's film stalled in distribution limbo after making its rounds on the festival circuit.
