1.0 out of 5 stars DECIEVED, 4 Sep 2007
By Joćo Pedro Leal "JLeeDrums" (Portugal) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I feel like someone took something of me... Why is it not mentioned that this is not the full version of the movie? The 25th Anniversary edition was suposed to be the full version, Why is it like this? The parts that made the cult around this movie are simply not there... Shame

1.0 out of 5 stars Dont bother., 1 Feb 2006
This film is the UK cut version with over 16 minutes removed and is not worth the buying/rental.

Absolute rubbish.

5.0 out of 5 stars YOU'LL NEED A STRONG STOMACH, 27 Nov 2004
Depending on your politics, this film either gets 1 star or the full 5. There really is no in between. It truly is the most disturbing movie I have ever seen and I have seen a lot of movies.

I tend to find reviews that give the story away too much rather annoying. However I feel it my duty to point out some scenes in this to save you from images that may stay with you for a long time. Therefore, do not read on if you don't want to know.

This film includes horror which is real. No vampires or ghosts, just a quasi-anthropological study of cannibals in the Amazon.

The plot is simple. It is a film of two halves. The first half shows a scientist looking for a film crew who have gone missing. The second half shows the crews fate through the eyes of their actual footage. It has been cited that there are similarities with Blair Witch. This is NO WAY like that student trash in any guise.

Here are some things you graphically see in Cannibal Holocaust:

1) A woman is raped by a huge phallus and then has a flint inserted into her before she is beaten to death.

2) A man has his penis cut off before he is completely mutilated.

3) A pregnant woman has her fetus pulled from her womb before she is brutally killed.

4) Children are forced to enter a burning hut where they are watched and filmed.

5) A man is forced to eat a human liver.

6) A woman is gang raped before her severed head is paraded around.

Also there are corpulous amounts of real life animal cruelty. A giant turtle is horrifically killed, a piglet shot in cold blood, a poor monkey has its brains cut out and a musk-rat is stabbed through the neck. This is real, so animal lovers and veggies beware.

These disturbing scenes are made even more so by the playing of genuinely lovely music.

Overall, the acting is terrible, the camera work shoddy and the plot predictable. I have given it 5 stars for the sheer nerve of the director, Ruggero Deodato. I will say that I am a strong anti-censorship believer. The watcher should have the choice, not some government official. However, I can fully see (and understand) why this movie was banned for so many years. At times it really does look like a snuff movie.

In a nut shell Cannibal Holocaust is Indiana Jones meets Delieverence meets Driller Killers meets Day of the Dead meets First Blood meets any documentary on National Geographic.

You have been warned of the content of this film.
