If you loved Rescue Dawn, try Aguirre, the Wrath of God
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share

What Aguirre, the Wrath of God is
Peruvian jungle, 16th century, a worn conquistador's helmet. A rickety raft navigates the Amazon River, men clutching rusty swords, the promise of El Dorado fading with each twist of the river. Herzog shoots the abyss staring back.
