Queimada – Insel des Schreckens (internationaler Titel: Burn!) ist ein Spielfilm aus dem Jahr 1969, gedreht unter der Regie von Gillo Pontecorvo und mit Marlon Brando in der Hauptrolle. Die Handlung dient als abstraktes Beispiel der Machenschaften der europäischen Übersee-Handelsgesellschaften in den Kolonien im 18. und 19. Jahrhundert vor dem Hintergrund von noch heute existierenden sozialen und politischen Spannungen in Entwicklungs- und Schwellenländern.
