'''''Apocalypto''''' is a film by [[Mel Gibson]]. Boy, is it ever a film by Mel Gibson.
Filmed entirely in the Yucatec Mayan language, it deals with a village of rainforest tribesmen who are attacked by an ambush of city-dwelling Mayans; many are captured for use as slaves, human sacrifices and target practice. One young captive, a hunter named Jaguar Paw, desperately tries to make his escape back to his pregnant wife and child, who are trapped in a well at the mercy of the elements.

* [[Always a Bigger Fish]]: The powerful Mayan civilization is abusing the smaller groups of forest-dwelling natives to feed their own greed. At the end of the film {{spoiler|the Europeans arrive}}.
* [[Aluminium Christmas Trees]]: One Mexican newspaper criticised, amongst other things, the inclusion of a "black panther" as [[Misplaced Wildlife]], guess they never heard of [[wikipedia:Black panther#Jaguars|black jaguars]].
