I was in it
by Alan D. Gelman (Montana)
Jeez,after all these years I had no idea people still watched this film for ANY REASON. Personally, I'm glad ot entertains people. That's why it was made. Have a ball!

High Camp!
by Richard Staats (McLean, VA USA)
More fun to watch now than it was when it first came out. The movie is very well done. The premise of the movie is that a feminist studies professor is sent into the Avocado Jungle of Death to try to negotiate with the savage, cannibal women that live there to secure avocados to prevent a U.S.S.R. / U.S. avocado gap.
The professor is joined by Bunny, who is contemplating changing her major for home economics to feminine studies and their male guide (played by Bill Maher).
The movie is fantastically "over the top" and funny.
5/5
What's up, Doc?
by Michael Valdivielso (Alexandria, VA)
Cannibal Women in the avocado jungle of death is very, very funny. The basic idea is that the USA is running short of avocados and they need to make a deal with the Piranha Women to increase the free world's supply (it turns out that the Reds have started to beat us in the avocado race). So Shannon Tweed (Hot Dog), with the help of a guide played by Bill Maher (Politically Incorrect) and her student Bunny played by Karen Mistal (Return Of The Killer Tomatoes) must go into the jungle of death. Luckily Bill has a copy of the guide book.
Starring Adrienne Barbeau (Escape From New York) as the leader of the Piranha Women the film is a hoot. The movie is soaking in humor. For example the savages are said to speak a primitive language. French, in other words. And the jungle boat ride is compared to the Disney one (even with a hippo attack).
From Shannon collecting all she needs for the journey, selecting her notepads to deciding which bullets to take, to Bill trying to teach a tribe of Donahues how to be REAL MEN, with a beer scene right out of 2001, there is no limit to the funniness and a few adult jokes are placed here and there. The fight between Shannon and Barbeau COULD have been better - they don't know how to fence at all.
There is a message buried inside the silliness, about male and female relationships, but that's not allowed to screw up the comedy. To counter the weak serious theme there is some brief nudity, at the beginning, when the amazons are having a swim in the river and both Tweed and Mistal look good in the tight skins the Piranha women wear. Mistal does wear a lot of pink outfits, mostly what look like swimsuits, which is a pleasure to see. So it's all good, clean, adult fun! Great for a 90 minute flick. Get it used or new.
1/5
A gruesome guacamole...
by Amaranth (Northern California)
And not because it's about feminist cannibals.
This movie is one of the WORST parodies.In its attempts to be funny,it's not even funny.Bill Maher plays the Archetypal Insensitive Male,reading his lines as if he had the script right in his hands.Luckily,he has moved onto Bigger and Better Things.Whew!
The premise,while interesting,ends up unfunny.Next to "Wild Wild West",this is one of the most unwatchable movies I've ever seen.Terrible acting,terrible music,I gave up after the first half hour.If you want to dip into guacamole,skip this film.
4/5
A great peice of trash
by Paul (Detroit)
I knew this one would be fun when I recognized Karen Mistal from Return of the Killer Tomatoes. Half the fun was watching Bill Maher play a bumbling guide. Get a few beers in you and invite a few friends over to help make fun of the stupidity of the plot, and the less than steller performances.

Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death
. Shannon Tweed (of Playboy Playmate of the Year fame) and Bill Maher (
Politically Incorrect
) travel deep into the Uncharted Avocado Jungle of southern California on a mission for the U.S. government to find the ancient Piranha Women. See, the government wants to avert an avocado shortage precipitated by the Piranha Women's occupation of the jungle; that and the Piranha Women have this little peccadillo of eating their men, thus posing a threat to our phallocentric way of life. Tweed is supposed to convince them to move to Malibu condos, where they can continue eating men if they like, so long as we can get in there and get those avocados. Accompanying the duo on their mission, for contrast, is a Home Ec major named Bunny whose secret fantasy is to be tied up with red licorice whip, and who wants to join the Piranha Women so she can get one of those cute outfits. The previous envoy for the Military, one Dr. Kurtz (Adrienne Barbeau), an anthropologist and feminist, never came back, instead becoming the leader of the threatening Piranha Women. Yet she's really interested in writing an exposé about her time in the jungle ("a kiss-sacrifice-and-tell book") so she can get back on the talk show circuit. "You don't know what it's like trying to face David Letterman with a book on male insensitivity.... The horror, the horror!" Thoroughly smart and entertaining, with hilarious dialogue that never flags.
