Cannibal Holocaust

Cannibal Holocaust

They eat and they are eaten!

198095 min6.3 / 10

A deeply transgressive found-footage horror film that uses graphic violence, animal cruelty, and sexual brutality to critique Western exploitation and filmmaking ethics, while itself committing the sins it depicts.

A New York University professor returns from a rescue mission to the Amazon rainforest with the footage shot by a lost team of documentarians who were making a film about the area's local cannibal tribes.
