It just looks so amateur

"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.

The Green Inferno had miserable cinematography and the cinematographer previously shot Aftershock, which was truly amateur quality. The DP and Roth collaborated again on Knock Knock, which for the most part was competently shot, with only a few shots falling apart in low light and looking like crummy video. It's a damn shame that Roth captured what must have been a grueling shoot deep in the amazon with such amateurish results there's plenty of decent digital cameras that would have produced better results, but he cheapened the beautiful environment with the crappy Cannon C300. Roth made Cabin Fever for peanuts and the film looks fantastic, the Hostel films are very classy looking movies (regardless of what you think of the films themselves) made for about what he shot The Green Inferno for. This was barely broadcast quality and certainly not big screen quality.

I would have to disagree. I thought the film was definitely lacking but the cinematography was one of it's only redeeming qualities. The aerial views of forests and rivers was excellent. The use of color was probably over done but still looked cool. The problem with this movie is that it wasn't realistic, scary or funny.

Swollengoat & Albert r the few voice of reason here. The rest of y'all r either on crack or eli Roth hater from a rival studio or something I havent got a F'ing clue.
U effing punks think u know everything when u just spewing bull crap. Name me one godamn movie in this genre that can even match green inferno cinematography, realism- from the plane crash to the full on natives in character to the way blood was spilled OK.
Do that teeny favor for me,. Show me wassup & let me know u r not some college punk who took a break from playing video games all day to watch a near masterpiece from a dir with a pedigree for this genre. Is it perfect or will please everyone? Hell no,. Not even the SW 7 but the quality here is far from absent. I can't wait for eli Roth next project. -

This cinematography is not bad!! its not amazing but its not bad at all. Some of the shots looks really good. maybe it looks a little cheap becauce of the cameras but what ruins it is the quick editing in almost every shot.

Cannibal Holocaust, almost 40 years ago, with a smaller budget.

I couldn't agree more. I have friends that are actors and actresses in Philadelphia. They ask me to screen their films and shorts. Obviously, the cinematography is usually a huge hang up on such low budgets.
This literally compared to some of the worst I've seen on $10,000 budgets. It was brutal.
It's the first film I've awarded 1 star in years and it deserved all of that star.
