You can never leave the awesome Cannibal Holocaust unaffected by the experience.

The turtle was really killed by the cast members (whose acting is really very good, although their ethics in respect of the animal killings is questionable).

The "snuff" scenes you refer to (in the Road to Hell sequence?) is actually real footage of third-world executions.

Interestingly, these scenes are portrayed as fake in the movie, where conversely the "found" footage of Yates and his crew is suggested to be the authentic stuff (which, one supposes, some of it is considering the genuine animal slaughters... though more than one person has been convinced the cannibal killings were also real, hence the hightened furore over the film).

Die Another Day.
Fuck, Bond films are the greatest things to ever come into this world.

"Cannibal Holocaust" is prime Euro Exploitation!

Deodato made an exciting and thankfully serious movie.

The documentary footage looks suitably authentic with its light flares, scratches, jump cuts and ever-moving camera.
This technique also helps the gore effects to no end as Deodato chooses to film his gore scenes from a slight distance with unstable camera set ups.
Add to this the absence of garishly fake blood, and what you have are truly unnerving dismemberments and beheadings.

Wonderful score as well.

Cannibal Holocaust is difficult viewing i agree. The animal suffering is hard to stomach for sure.
Yet the film itself is a well made, multi-layered, exciting and ultimately satisfying wallow in the blood stained waters of extreme cinema.

A movie that's a very, very guilty pleasure.

You should see Angry Anal #33 - now that's a very, very, VERY guilty pleasure.
