2.0 out of 5 stars A great satire on feminism and male/female relations 21 Nov 2000
By torpads@yahoo.com
Format:VHS Tape
"Cannibal Women" is not only a movie that's so bad, it's good, it delivers right-on satirical jabs at feminism, machoism, and male/female relations. Not only do we have a conniving military and warring factions of cannibal women, but a local male tribe, "the Donahues".

The chemistry between Shannon Tweed and Bill Maher is perfect--this is definitely Tweed's best performance anywhere, and Maher is perfect as a chauvinistic, directionally-challenged jungle guide. Karen Mistal, who has the thankless job of playing college student/mindless bimbo/aspiring feminist/aspiring cannibal woman, plays her role without flaw, as well. Only Adrienne Barbeau, in a cameo role, seems stiff. But somehow, even her performance works.

For a low-budget comedy, this film surprisingly packs a lot of laughs and even a message or two. Great fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious spoof - a classic B movie! 2 Nov 2012
By HorrorHound
Format:DVD
Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle ...It's a long cheesy title on a movie with an equally cheesy premise. That's what makes this movie so much fun to watch. I have a soft spot for B-movies. The strong effort by the actors often makes them superior to the "A" movies Hollywood produces.
The plot is ridiculous, and the actors know it. They play it straight anyway and their excellent performances make this movie so good. In the face of a cheesy script poor production values, a low budget and skimpy costumes they make it work. I highly recommend you get this movie and a bowl of popcorn on Saturday night.
Cannibal Women is a B-movie that scores all A's with me.

3.0 out of 5 stars Ridiculously Camp 8 May 2011
By HoneyPossum
Format:DVD
Just as the title says, it's ridiculously camp. Some of the extras are Playboy bunnies! Funny for it's badness, but a good laugh. Worth it if you can get it cheap.
