Tarrytown, New York. It can be argued that humans coming into the homo-sapiens stage of evolution survived and expanded because of what is now considered barbarous savage ways. Savagery was a survival tool. We came from barbarity...and to an extent we still are savages. I first heard about Cannibal Holocaust, through the internet. My initial curiosity and desire to see the film was because it was supposedly the most violent and gory film made, which is a subject matter than can be debated. But when I eventually got a copy of this I was blown away. Slater, Jay (2002). "" Cannibal Ferox: Review by Jay Slater" ". In Slater, Jay (ed.). Eaten Alive!: Italian Cannibal and Zombie Movies.

HHFF Welcomes Controversial Italian Gore-Meister Ruggero Deodato". Housecore Horror Film Festival . Retrieved 7 January 2015. As has been noted, there is a jarring sense of realism to the cinematography; comparisons have been made to National Geographic pictorials, which I believe are apt comparisons as I at times felt like I was watching a National Geographic documentary gone terribly, terribly wrong. Narratively there are shades of Joseph Conrad lurking under the surface, which come into play particularly during the problematic last half of the film, in which the social commentary comes to the forefront; it's up to you whether or not the message is lost in its gratuitous translation, and even then, the message itself is problematic and loaded with historical implications that run deeper than the film can accommodate, but it is no less a noble and impressionistic effort in forcing its audience to think about what they have just seen. D'Offizi, Sergio (interviewee) (2003). In the Jungle: The Making of Cannibal Holocaust (Documentary). Italy: Alan Young Pictures. It's hard to 'enjoy' this film in a traditional viewing sense. Yet it remains a deserved lynchpin in the horror genre's history.The film follows a Professor investigating the disappearance of an American film team (3 guys and girl) that went into the jungle of South America to film a documentary about the native cannibals.

The 25 Most Controversial Movies Ever". Entertainment Weekly. No.882. New York City: Entertainment Weekly Inc. 16 June 2006 . Retrieved 1 February 2014. In amongst the film there is the media business cogs turning. The dilemma of TV executives battling with the Professor to air the once lost footage on TV for the viewing public. The professor is reluctant. The one scene that can’t seem to leave my mind is the turtle killing. In this scene, a fairly large turtle is captured in the water and dragged on shore. We are then treated to an incredibly gruesome and completely real scene where we see the actors decapitate the turtle. It doesn’t stop there either, the actors than rip the limbs off the turtle and than remove its shell. As if that wasn’t bad enough, they tear the insides out of the turtle and than finally cook and eat it. Miska, Brad (23 June 2008). "Deodato Holds New 'Holocaust' Hostage?". Bloody-Disgusting LLC .

It is the most complete UK release ever with only about 8-10 seconds of cuts. The remastering of the picture and sound are far better than you could have ever hoped for.

Rodrigo Moreno on His Genre-Hopping Fable The Delinquents and the Importance of Taking Storytelling Risks Starring Robert Kerman (perhaps better known for his many pornographic films), it's not surprising that this film pushes the boundaries on nudity and cruelty. Men and women naked, some of them sexually brutalized... animals killed, including a monkey who gets his face cut off and the infamous "turtle scene". I was actually somewhat disturbed by this film -- at the very least, rather uncomfortable. One scene where an adulteress is punished was particularly disturbing for me. Despite these interpretations, Deodato has said in interviews that he had no intentions in Cannibal Holocaust but to make a film about cannibals. [14] Actor Luca Barbareschi asserts this as well and believes that Deodato only uses his films to "put on a show". [34] Robert Kerman contradicts these assertions, stating that Deodato did tell him of political concerns involving the media in the making of this film. [13] Weiler, Lance (9 December 1999).
