While navigating with his girlfriend Alexis (Brianna Brown) and his partners and friends Chris (Hadley Fraser) and Tom (Nick Mennell) and his girlfriend Anna (Emily Foxler) to a close a Broadband Internet access business in Asia in the motor pleasure yacht of Joe (Marc Bacher),they rescue a wounded drowned man in shock. During the night, the stranger overrides the automatic pilot and steers the vessel to change the direction; however he accidentally wrecks on a rock and the vessel sinks. The castaways reach a beach in an island and they try to contact the coast-guard through the radio. However, during the night, the body of the stranger vanishes from the grave and then Tom also disappears. The group decides to seek-out Tom and sooner they find that the wild jungle has hostile inhabitants that hunt in pack and the survivors are the prey.

"The Lost Tribe" is a remake of the weak "The Forgotten Ones", with the same storyline, a better development of the castaways and a ridiculous sub-plot of a priest (Lance Henriksen) that seems to be inspired in "Rambo" that kills a group of researchers to avoid them to release information about the discovery of the missing link in human evolution. Despite having no religion, I hate this sort of disrespectful campaign against the Catholic Church promoted by some filmmakers in the cinema industry with obscure intentions. The plot is flawed and there is no development of the key character performed by the decadent Lance Henriksen. The beautiful and sexy Brianna Brown is totally wasted in a spendable character with laughable lines that wears only bikini and to tell the truth, I only liked the characters and performances of Emily Foxler and the creatures. If you have already seen "The Forgotten Ones", "The Lost Tribe" will give you the sensation of déjà vu. My vote is five.

Title (Brazil): "A Tribo II" ("The Tribe II")

I did actually think The Lost Tribe would be sort of fun, due to its idea. But I didn't like the film very much. There are redeeming values and they were that it was beautifully shot, Emily Foxler is quite likable and although they're underused the creatures do have some menace to them. Otherwise, the story is unoriginal, all too similar to Predator and The Forgotten Ones, and is not helped by dull pacing and a ridiculous subplot involving a Catholic Priest. The script is unfocused and cheesy especially with Brianna Brown, with not enough mystery or character development, the characters I didn't care for at all either finding them stock or unnecessary. There are some scenes that were poorly done due to either bad acting or direction, I am especially talking about the scene on the beach which also had inconsistent continuity and the unintentionally funny scene in the cave. The climax was decent though, it just came too late to care. The acting is nothing to write home about, Foxler I liked, but Brianna Brown is wasted with some of the worst material of the movie and Lance Henrikssen tries hard but the unnecessary character and ridiculous subplot spoils things significantly. All in all, an unoriginal and dull movie, not an abomination but should have been much more. 3/10 Bethany Cox

I first saw this almost a decade back on a dvd which I own. Revisited it recently on a fast forward mode. It is a rehash of the The Forgotten Ones by the same producers as they became obsessed with the idea of Predator, Descent n Ford Coppola's Dracula or mayb they wanted to splurge the money earned on interest. But the original cast n crew were not fools to reshoot the entire film.

Be careful to avoid wasting time on this turkey, so be aware of the various titles this film is known as, Primevil, Primal, The Lost Tribe, etc. I hope Lance Henriksen charged the producers good money for his 2 mins appearance.

The lead girl escapes the creatures many times/she is not killed by the creatures quickly while the other characters r jus bumped off quickly. The ending is very convenient n a real piece of cake.
