Cannibal Terror

Terreur cannibale

A couple of dumb hoodlums and their busty prostitute moll abduct the irritatingly cutesy young daughter of a wealthy tycoon. Their plan goes awry when the trio make the fatal mistake of hiding out in a jungle that's the stalking grounds of a savage cannibal tribe. Sound good? Well, it just ain't. Man, does this painfully awful bilge strike out something rotten in every possible way: The slack (non)direction by Alain Deruelle, the meandering narrative, the pitifully unconvincing cannibal tribe played by mostly white guys sporting beer guts, comb overs, and/or sideburns (!), a lame'n'tame rape scene, the dull and uneventful wafer-thin script by H.L. Rostaine, tacky gore, flat acting, alarming paucity of nudity, insipid villains, annoying little girl hostage, terrible acting, and laughably lousy dubbing all make this steaming pile of celluloid excrement a positively agonizing chore to sit through. Absolute dreck.

What the hell was this! Made in the year of Cannibal Holocaust, the one that was really gory and had many problems, well that same year this one came out. Scenes jump from on to another. Girl gets lost nobody cares, girl got raped, the other night she is dancing with her raper, seeing is believing. After two burglars are fed up with almost having nothing they decide to abduct a young girl and are set to cross the border but behind the border there are cannibals. And even that, white men disguised as cannibals. And still, Cannibal Terror is one serached by the geeks. Only fr two reasons. When the cannibals finally are eating it's gory, but for a flick over 90 minutes they only eat for 5 minutes, for the rest they dance and jump from one scene to another. To conclude, annoying, stupid conversations, things taking place you think, huh, terrible terrible Gore 3/5 Nudity 1/5 Effects 1/5 Story 0,5/5 Comedy 0/5

Just around two weeks ago I saw Cannibal Apocalypse and I thought it was really bad but man this movie is way worst than that, its a total mess. It's not even one of those movie that is so bad it becomes a laughing stock, the movie just suck. The whole experience was a nightmare. The acting is a complete garbage, the soundtrack is annoying, the plot is dreadful it doesn't even make any sense, and the gore is just terrible you can clearly see they were eating sausages in one of the scene near the end of the movie. This is definitely one of the worst movie I've seen this year.

I generally like movies that depict anything that is "non mainstream". And I even don't mind gross movies if they are done well. But this movie is a huge disappointment - no real story, no building up any character or situation, extremely bad acting (a school play does far better), the shots were pathetic, the gross scenes were not necessary (nor were they shocking). The close up in scenes is really bad, i think i even spotted a 'cannibal' with long stylish locks! Looks like the directors/producers paid no attention to the movie at all ! With this movie, I've decided to stop watching any more "cannibal" genre movie!

Two petty thieves and a prostitute (?) decide they want to strike the big one. They kidnap a young girl and fly off to a safe house in the grasslands of South America where the cannibals live. The thieves insult their host and become feed stock. The dubbing was bad. Sometimes people are "talking" when their lips are not moving. The "Indian" dancing left something to be desired. If you are going to restore the film, get rid of the corny soundtrack. There is a spicy extra of a deleted scene where a woman dances and strips. 3 stars for the camp value. F-word, sex, rape, nudity.

Out on video at last! One of the original video nasties that were banned by Britain. It was finally released uncut in 2003. Obviously, the Brits don't like cannibal movies as they banned five of them. This film was really bad on so many levels. It seemed as if time and distance were totally disregarded. For example, Monsieur Danville (Olivier Mathot) left for three days and seemed to come back in 30 minutes. The jungle must have been in Southern Spain, as it took everyone so little time to get there. If you are looking for titillating scenes, there is only one: Pamela Stanford taking a bath. Other than that the rest focused mainly on the eating of people's guts. Yech! They really didn't need to ban this as it is too awful to watch.
