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).
