The Nasties Review: Cannibal Ferox

Continuing the Nasties Review series I have a film that goes all the way with gore. Amputations, partial decapitations, genital mutilation, torturous suspensions and just plain torture along with all manner of nastiness is contained in this over the top cannibal offering from Umberto Lenzi Cannibal Ferox (wild cannibal).
While being spurred on by the previous years release of Cannibal Holocaust it is however a very different film, a wild horror trip with the legendary 'Naughty Mike' Radice.

I would watch the movie Cannibal Holocaust but i have a huge heart for animals. and i heard the animals were actually killed i would prob. bust out crying with the animal scenes. are the animal killing scenes really bad?

[lampyman101]

@OfficialYobusters it's not nice. I wouldn't watch it if you're upset by that kind of thing

[puffaroo]

How is this compared to cannibal holocaust?

[lampyman101]

@puffaroo more fun but less interesting

[metallicaguitarfan]

is Mike, Ralph Fiennes? looks like him

[lampyman101]

@metallicaguitarfan LOL He's a bit classy for a film like this. Mike is played by my favourite Italian exploitation film actor Giovanni Lomabardo Radice (aka John Morghan)

I saw this on vhs back in 1984 along with Cannibal Holocaust. Rented both from the local gas station. I was 14. Same place I used to buy cigarettes.

@Dualismoassoluto The animal killings were pretty pointless. They can use special effects and props to kill the characters but they can't on the animals? I'm glad the asshole that made the movie went to jail. I'm not even a serious animal lover, but that was just wrong and stupid.

Cannibal Ferox; one of the best imo.

Yeah, the animal killings are strong stuff and once you see them you can't quite get them out of your head. The DVD I have gives you the option of watching the movie without those scenes but I've never tried it--I mean, it's not like you watch this film for a night of charming, gentle family entertainment, and the animal killings aren't necessarily the worst things about it.

@OfficialYobusters i didnt watch the movie for this reason

[OfficialYobusters]

what exactly do they do to the animals?

[OfficialYobusters]

@lampyman101 k thanks for letting me know, but are the scenes like really really bad with it, because i really wanna see the movie, but dont wanna see the animals killed maybe i can skip through those parts?

@lampyman101

Yeah, i corrected myself about 20 secs after i posted the comment, when i remember ive seen him in house on the edge of the park.

And, if you read the comment, could u review newer exploitation films, like Long Pigs and Hobo with a shotgun, been a subscriber off ur channel for a long time, and i would love it.. one grindhouse fan to another :)
