River of Death

About This Movie

River of Death is a curious blend of action and adventure, set against the backdrop of the Amazon jungle. It follows our protagonist, played by a determined Hamilton, as he ventures into the unknown, searching for a fabled Lost City. There's this ragtag group that tags along, each with their own agendas, which adds a layer of tension. The pacing fluctuates—sometimes it's a relentless chase, other times it's a slow burn that lets the atmosphere sink in. The presence of a Nazi doctor adds a macabre twist, heightening the stakes and lending an unexpected edge. Practical effects are used, and though they might not always land perfectly, they do bring an old-school charm. Performances are varied, but Hamilton carries the film with a solid, charismatic turn. It's certainly an intriguing watch for genre enthusiasts.
