Is there a movie where there is someone stuck on the island filled with canibals and he is trying to survive?

The enemies (cannibals) and caves where inspired by "The Descent"

One scene (corpse hanging at a rope) is some kind of easteregg from the movies

The 2nd one was good though I think they could have smoothed the characters out some more.

Take out the island part and you have (both 70's and remake) The Hills Have Eyes

thats true. most of them just where cannon fodder without doing or even improvising anything to this new situation

Yeah. A bit rushed. Still a good movie though.

The descent, obviously. But "The 13th Warrior" really seems to be in the same style as the game, with cave dwelling cannibals coming out at night. Or you can read the book. Eaters of the dead.

It's got Antonio Banderas. He's dreamy.

The 13th Warrior is pretty old now, though i loved it when I was younger, it might be a bit dated now.

I am reminded of the scene near the end where they escape the cave through the water without knowning for sure if they'll be able to hold their breath long enough to get out.

I was not able to hold my breath long enough...

Like some others have mentioned though, this game is actually based on Cannibal Holocaust (effigies/camera crew story basically ripped directly from it) and The Descent (Climbing axe is exact same design, idea for cave creatures)

It doesnt have canibals and all, but if you want to see something realy scary watch "Kazaam" starring Shaq. I still have nightmares.

That movie has absolutely NO correlation to the game other than in name only.
idk if there is a posting from the devs about what did inspire them but it does give the player a "The Descent" feeling- if you've watched the movie.
