It just looks so amateur

Because of the cinematography. Did you not read the thread?

Because, it looks like a "poor" production, like the Syfy channel movies. Everything was kinda crappy and sloppy.
The acting sucked, the editing was horrible
And the budget it's not an excuse. I saw plenty of movies with lower budgets than this one, that looked 10 times better. How big of a budget do you think Cannibal Holocaust had? And it looked better than this film.

Cannibal Holocaust was shot on film which is cumbersome and difficult for filming on location, especially in the jungle; The Green Inferno was shot on Canon digital cameras that were specially designed to be extremely lightweight and able to withstand high temperatures to shoot miles into the Amazon as they did, so that may explain why it looked so "cheap" but which I'll definitely give a pass any day. If anything, I'd stay that as a film is has a very naturalistic look fitting for the story, but each to his own I suppose.

My thoughts exactly. Script was pretty terrible. Only enjoyable thing was the irony of the activists getting eaten by the people they were trying to "save." I wasnt expecting much going in, but it managed to miss even my low expectations.

Looked good enough for me. in fact for 5 million it looked pretty dang good except for maybe the plane crash.

It's the same with his show Hemlock Grove (at least the pilot which he directed). Everything had this hideously cheap, digital look. At least Green Inferno didn't have the weird piss-yellow cast that the Hemlock Grove pilot did.

I liked the color palette a lot. After sooo many dark unsaturated blueish brownish horror movies I liked the bright greens, yellows of this movie. This would look much better on film and I think would solve many of the problems people have.
The acting well I think it influenced the way they shot this, especially the tribe scenes. And I see nothing wrong with the editing. I would do without a couple of fade to blacks and some scenes could be a little big tighter, but I don't think it's that terrible. I never felt confused by it, so it must be acceptable.
Do you get this kind of gore on the scifi channel? -

"Bone Tomahawk is pretty dull actually. Until the last half hour at least. I'd say they are on par."
Agreed. I don't think Bone Tomahawk deserves quite as much praise as it's getting. I semi-liked it, but it's not especially compelling for atleast 70 or so minutes.
I much preferred The Green Inferno.
I didn't think the photography looked amateur. Didn't have a problem with the acting either.
