4.0 out of 5 stars I dont see why everyoine downs this film so much, its an aleright film for its kind!!!!!!, 9 Jan 2006
By M. Western "Zombie" (Wakefield, West yorkshire, Enagland, Eurpoe, Earth, Some random 'milky way') - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
There have been so many bad reviews to this little flick and i dont see what al the fuss is about.
In comperation to other 70's and 80's cannibal flicks and b-movies of its kind or mabe even video nastys then this film doesnt rank that incredibly low when you think about it. and if your a real hard core fan then you may, like me, actually enjoy this film.
Yet im not saying its that good either, as it is pretty avaradge really, but it has its points and the groovy music thats completley inapropriate does put a bit of a grin on your face. As well as a few badly done death scenes which are barely bloody but got this film banned do keep you entertained enough to make this film worth watching at least once.
John Saxon is one of 2 familar faces i know of but apart from that the usual default no-body cast is all here.
Another thing which, if you put aside the overall awefulness of this film, is actually okay is the story. Although in many terms its pretty unorigonal and predictable in the long run there are no other cannibal films that are done in such a style as this which are set in the city and this film is more of a thriller if you ask me as it contains a few action film style shooting sequences and is mainly about a bunch og murderes or cannibals in this case, on the run against the cops in the end.
The film is fairly fast paced once it gets going but up until then it can be a little slow at times and dont buy this film expectinga total gore fest either because it really isnt anything too extreme.
Its just that kinda thing that'll entertain the hardened cannibal or budget horror fan.
This DVD is pretty good too as it is cut but all is cut from this is a scene with a burning rat in it and there is a decent region1 version with that still in if your that desperate to see it yet this region2 version has a decent few extras. It may be pretty crappy compared to other films but for its genre youd be lucky to get a trailer in some films of its kind.
I also believe this is one of those films where reviews dont say much as if your a fan or not this film may turn out to be the worsed piece of cinema in history to you yet your mate with an almost identical taste to you may love it. You either love it or hate it.
I think for the price you can get it for now the old school collectopr of these films shouldnt really care about forking out a bit of cash for this as it also looks really cool on the dvd and if you dont like it then you still have a little addiiton to your next hundred dvd's.

1.0 out of 5 stars UTTER RUBBISH!!!, 1 Sep 2005
By R. W. Barnes "spikesue" (Bucks UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have wasted money on products before but this takes the biscuit. The film has round about 6 canniballs who bite a few people and run around a bit.
There is about as much gore as in my local pub, probably less. And any gore there is takes back seat to second rate action!!! Never buy this it is PATHETIC!!!!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Invasion Of The Flesh Hunters., 27 Jun 2009
Cannibal Apocalypse was a great Italian gore flick and I think its one of my favorites, I love these cannibal films and even though this film didn't exactly take place in the jungles I still think that it worked and the idea behind this film was different and definitely worth watching. The film was directed by Antonio Margheriti who previously did some giallo films, the film had a different setting this time instead of the usual jungle it takes place in the city. The film was about a Vietnam vet named Hopper played by b-movie actor John Saxon who was a commanding officer trying to rescue some captured soldiers who are held in a pit the two soldiers are Charles played by Giovanni Lambardo Radice and another guy, they are soon rescued but then their commanding officer discovers something quite shocking as the guys are found eating a charred Vietnamese girl and soon one of them bites Hopper in the arm. We soon discover that Hopper years later has returned home and is now married and is leading a normal life in Atlanta but is still having nightmares from that horrible incident from a few years ago and things are getting worse since its been discovered that Hopper has contracted a rare cannibalistic form of rabies he also meets his two old army buddies and they soon go on a rampage eating people, they also bite people on the neck infecting them kind of like a vampire or something. Anyway the film had some neat death scenes and the gore was terrific, my favorite scene has to be when Giovanni's character gets cornered by the police down in the city sewers and then gets blasted by a shotgun which leaves a large hole in his stomach where his guts spill out yes very nice!, he always seems to have the best and most gruesome death scenes in these type of films. The music was pretty good as well even though it was a mix of some synthesizers and 80's disco I still liked it. If your an Italian horror fan or just love some cheesy gore flicks then I highly recommend this it has numerous scenes of gore, nudity and 70's style action all this makes for an entertaining and memorable Italian exploitation film. By the way this was part of my older review that I wrote on Amazon.com, this edition has the same special features as the Euroshock collection and it's cheaper so you should definitely check it out.
