Cannibal Holocaust
Directed by Ruggero Deodato
A documentary crew get on the bad side of the cannibals they're filming in this gruesome exploitation classic. A researcher recovers footage a crew of filmmakers shot before they disappeared. But when he watches it, he sees horror far worse than he imagined. Made in 1979, but not released here until 1985, this controversial film quickly became a grindhouse smash. But it's biggest impact on horror is surely its innovative found-footage conceit, which led to the emergence of an entire subgenre in recent years. Vegetarians beware: the animal violence is very real.

love it ! true to the core
Will you wish you hadn't seen it? Possibly. The one star reviews have a point: it is the opposite of "fun" -- nasty, disturbing, revolting -- but that's the point: An exploitation film that presumes to critique exploitation while positively reveling in it. You will not find ideological consistency here; It is what it is. Some of us accept that and can gain something by watching, and others can't. You probably already know which you are, and you're probably right.
Don't take shrooms and watch this movie. Probably would've hated it sober too though. This movie sucks
Someone actually wrote, “ remove this from your streaming site”. How about no! How about you just don’t watch it. A lot of people loooove censorship!!
A classic. A must watch for fans of disturbing movies.
