Expedition From Hell: The Lost Tapes

Self-styled survivalist and demolition expert Mickey Grosman leads a team of amateur explorers deep into the Amazon on a death-defying quest to cross the South American continent. But the expedition is immediately thrown into chaos under Mickey's tyrannical leadership, and things spiral out of control as the team gets lost and runs out of water, leaving one team member on the brink of death.

Mickey fires one of the team's only experienced members before enlisting a local guide to lead them through a treacherous desert. When the team gets lost and runs out of water, things spiral out of control, leaving one team member on the brink of death.

A perilous bridge crossing exposes how far Mickey is willing to go for good film footage before the team heads deep into the Eastern Andes. When one of the team members breaks down completely while deep inside a treacherous mountain range, Mickey claims to have sent him back to civilization, but no one has seen or heard from him since ...

Mickey loses his grip on the expedition as they trespass into a forbidden zone and are kidnapped by spear-wielding indigenous tribesmen. In a bizarre turn, Mickey stages a competition with the intention of replacing his lead guide, resulting in inviting an unqualified woman onto the trek. After she accuses Mickey of having a God complex, the team stumbles upon a strange community willing to prove her right.

A near-deadly case of dengue fever almost stops Mickey before he's arrested at gunpoint and imprisoned in Brazil. But questions about his escape and three months of missing footage cast a mysterious shadow over the final legs of the expedition. Did covert operatives help Mickey finish his expedition, or is he hiding a deeper truth?
