8/10
Really a fun watch.

I actually really enjoyed this movie. Even though yes this movie is technically a rip off of Cannibal Holocaust which is an incredible movie, it still manages to be it's own unique movie.

This movie brings in politics as well, and how both the modern life is just as filthy. The movie was actually pretty good. The acting was solid for the most part. The writing the movie does keep you looped in. I wasn't really bored during this movie at all.

The gore was pretty good, the camera work is fine, the music was a bit repetitive but also pretty good. It's an amazing message, in Cannibal Holocaust it's Who are the real cannibals, here it's who is living life correctly?

Is Jonas living life correctly? Are the cannibals living their lives correctly? Is the modern life the cities are they living life correctly? That's the message i got out from this movie, it asks what is actually correct way of living. Sure you can obviously say the cities, but to the Cannibals, and Jonas it's not the right way. As Jonas said the cities are corrupted and filthy in their own ways.

Cannibal Ferox is kinda a complete rip off of Cannibal Holocaust, Eaten Alive has it's own spin, and actually has a different message berried inside of it. Cannibal Ferox was too similar to Holocaust, this actually had it's own universe, and it's actually unique in it's own way.

If you enjoyed Cannibal movies, like Cannibal Holocaust, Jungle Holocaust, Cannibal Ferox, Green Inferno, any many other Cannibal Movies, i can tell you Eaten Alive is a fun watch, and it keeps you looped in.

Sure it's not as well made as the original Holocaust, but it still is a fun watch.
