• Cannibal Holocaust | DVD | (28/07/2008) from £17.53   |  Saving you £-4.54 (-34.90%)   |  RRP £12.99

  Banned and heavily censored throughout the world here is a film that surpasses its reputation as a shotgun blast to the senses. Cannibal Holocaust presents the found footage of four documentary filmmakers who experience brutal death at the hands of a savage South American tribe of flesh-eaters. This footage is so intense so graphic and so unflinching in its realism that the director and producer of Cannibal Holocaust were arrested upon its original release and the film seized. Widely acknowledged as the uncredited inspiration for The Blair Witch Project Cannibal Holocaust has been both praised and vilified for its portrait of savagery. Ruggero Deodato's nihilistic masterwork critiques the implications of Mondo-style filmmaking even as it explores the most disturbing extremes of cruelty and exploitation. Not for the weak of stomach the film's horrifying power cannot be denied.
