1828DVD

Totally Uncut International Print (111 Minutes)

director: Rene Cardona
starring: Hugo Stiglitz · Norma Lazareno · Carlos Camara · Luiz Maria Aguilar · Fernando Larranaga

Based on the real-life event, here is a harrowing adventure story of plane-crash survivors who fed on bodies of the dead passengers to stay alive. The film opens as an airplane crashes high in the Andes mountains of South America. The surviving passengers, including a team of soccer players, fight for life but soon realize that no rescue is in sight. They must do whatever it takes to live.

Legendary Mexican exploitation director Rene Cardona (of numerous SANTO films, plus WRESTLING WOMEN VS THE AZTEC MUMMY and LA HORRIPILANTE BESTIA HUMANA) downplays the schlock here and delivers an epic adventure story [with some grisly moments]. Cardona was the grandmaster of Mexican Grindhouse entertainment, making 145 films between 1925-82. He is the father of director Rene Cardona Jr and the grandfather of Al Castor (Rene Cardona III). Mr Cardona died from cancer in April 1988 at age 82.

A Mexican film in Spanish with English subtitles; fullscreen format (4:3), totally uncut version (111 min.), DVD encoded for ALL REGION NTSC, playable on any American machine. Extras include theatrical trailers.
