cannibal modern day classic?
i would class it as a modern day classic example of the cannibal exploitation film jaundre.
Its up there at the top along with Cannibal Ferox as the mother of all cannibal movies. What Devil-Hunter is trying to relay is that he likes the film ,but, he does not see it as a classic --his version of a classic is like older movies i think-?? However cannibal holocaust is a classic in its own jaundre , cannibal movies are all mostly compared to Holocaust, its like the Gone With The Wind of cannibal films--I personally love the film...animal deaths or not... its a classic amoung video nasties!!! and if your sad and havent seen it -download it and have a look..but remmember its only a film, nobody got hurt..or did they?;) LOL |
If you look in the list of forums, you will see "Classic Horror" is defined as horror filmes of the 60s and BEFORE.
This forum is for discussion of classic horror films, as defined on HDC- not whatever films you happen to love from your childhood. I don't know- are n00bs unable to read? We have to go through this every time we get one. And there's an active thread about the film in Modern Horror, where it belongs. Why do we need TWO? |

Hey n00bs...post in the damn Modern Horror Movies forum. Cannibal Holocaust is very overrated anyway....Sheesh. :rolleyes: |
After all the talk about this movie I wanted to see it. I stayed with my bro this past week and his boyfriend is a HUGE horror buff. He happened to have an extra copy( that and Zombie) so I watched it the other night and I must say I thought a was a great movie.
It was very raw. Alot of WOAH moments and the music was great. I loved the song in the opening credits(totally contrast to the contents of the movie) Great, I'm glad I finally got to see it(besides the animal deaths). |
I tried watching this about a month ago and stopped after about 30 minutes. I think it was a combination of seeing the first animal killing (which was really unnecessary and brutal), watching some savage shove various foreign objects in that woman's vag...finally killing her, and then some guy whipped out his shlong to confuse the cannibal tribe. It was just like a gross-out overload. Maybe I'll just man up and watch it again...:cool:

No trust me anyone who has ever been to a forum is going to know the same stuff since every forum has like 50 threads and 1000 post about this movie. It is a great film buyt it seems like every noob thinks they have to start a thread on this movie in order to seem legit. They need a section titled obvious threads. It should include this, Your thoughts on Saw, and the ever popular Top 10 favorite horror movies. LOL

I have been fortunate/unfortunate to see this film. I'm not sure about it. When I first watched it, I hated it. But reading your posts has made me reappraise my feelings towards the film. I am frightfully lost. Everything has got to be black and white with me. I don't like grey areas. 'Cannibal Holocaust' sends me into a grey world where I don't know myself. That is scary. To me, that is horror. Fear personified. One debate that always rages when this film comes up, is animal violence. I have a good friend who is a vegetarian. I'm not ashamed to say it, but I eat meat. And sometimes this causes conflict between us. "How do you do it?" asks my friend as I tuck into my triple burger and cheese, and I reply hungrily with bulging cheeks, "This my friend is heaven." Now I think film is art. But so is eating. What I'm trying to say is, if animals are being killed in the name of art and food, then I'm all for it. I admit, when I was younger, I participated in an amateur movie where we beat a cat with sticks. At first I didn't want to do it, but when the others started clapping their hands and shouting my name as I gave the first strokes, I felt a blood lust surge in my frame and a feeling of acceptance. I was laughing and crying at the same time as I was beating it, this showing how conflicted my emotions were. Man is god and devil rolled into one. There is no heaven. There is no hell. Man makes his own. And when I killed that cat I made my own hell. The police had a chat and I'm not allowed pets anymore. I often talk about this incident with Clive, my spirit guide, who I keep in a pepper pot. He said I will relive that incident in every life that I have, an incident that will forever spiral away into infinity as I am doomed to repeat it over and over again. Clive really likes 'Cannibal Holocaust'.
