Cannibal Ferox(1981)



For what they have done MAKE THEM DIE SLOWLY. Umberto Lenzi's Cannibal Ferox is said to be banned in 31 country's and be the most violent film ever made. It is very far from being the most violent film ever made, it is your typical Italian cheese film. With that it is an extremely fun film to watch. Plus the film uses the word "twat" a lot so that alone makes it a winner in my book.

Cannibal Ferox is about a brother sister duo along with there friend(the twat) that are traveling to the Amazon to displace the myth that cannibalism happens as an organized practice. In the jungle they meet two drug dealers that have been attacked by cannibals. They team up to try to leave to escape the jungle to not meet the wrath of the cannibals. They find out that Mike(played by John Morgan aka Giovanni Lombardo Radice) lied about them getting attacked by cannibals, when they really they attacked the tribe.

There is some pretty cool gore scenes in Cannibal Ferox. You get some hooks threw the tittays to some typical cannibal movies castrations. This movie is a classic I recommend it to anyone who wants to have a fun viewing experience.

Cannibal Holocaust(1980)



Made nearly 30 years ago, we have Ruggero Deodato's infamous cult classic "Cannibal Holocaust". This film is still shocking people with its brutal deaths or real animal slaughters. Shot on location in New York and the Amazon, it has visually stunning locations.

A film crew heads out to the Amazon to film a documentary about cannibalism. The crew murders and rapes the cannibal tribes to get the best shot possible, this is what leads to there demise. After months of not having any contact with the crew a search team is assembled to look for the missing crew. The search team is leaded by the Dean of Anthropology at New York University, Dr. Harold Monroe. As they are in the jungle looking for the crew they see the cannibals with possessions that belonged to the crew. Once they see the film canisters the smart Dr. Harold Monroe(played by porn star Robert Kertman) trades the film for a voice recorder. When they are back in New York they review what footage was shot, because they were going to edit it together and shot a tv documentary. When they are done with the film, they destroy it because of the unbelievable content on it.

Cannibal Holocaust is the film that got me in to horror, and still is one of my favorite films. The film is extremely savage, with amazing effects. If the animal violence kept you from watching the film in the past, now you can pick up the dvd released by Grindhouse Releasing, it has an "Animal Cruelty Free Version" that goes black before every animal death.



Some douche bag at Relevant Entertainment Group decided it would be a good idea to remake this film. This is an outrage, there is no way this film could even be remade today. It would be a steaming pile of shit.



Sign the petition to stop this remake.
