Heh! You're getting into my territory now.
After being amazed at how crap the first (ahem) 'Reality TV' series was,
where those twats were supposedly stuck on an island but could get a
launch to go shopping on the next island - then the next thing they did
after spending time building a camp, burned it down as a symbol of
breaking with the old, I thought, wouldn't it be great if they played
lion sounds in the jungle then kidnap one of the people at night,
leaving lines of blood and chunks of meat ?
To paraphrase a wonderful line from the Beavis & Butthead Silas Marner,
Kick-boxer episode spoken by the film voice-over "this film is so bad,
it won't just scare you. It'll mess you up .... for good!"
php Island. It's RTFM (or in this case "Really Too F***ing Mental!")
Richard.
