Although written in a fairly pedestrain fashion, the movie does a good job of raising the "What would you do?" issues. Me, I'd be chomping blindly, hoping to ingest the dead first.

Recriação fiel do trágico acidente ocorrido em 72, o filme explora interessantes questões morais e é eficaz ao dramatizar a luta daquele pequeno grupo por sua sobrevivência.

An overlooked gem, made even more powerful by the fact that it is based on a factual incident.

There are better real-life disaster flicks out there... and the flesh looks remarkably like chicken.
