serve to make the casual viewer ponder on the human "deaths"

No, just the silly viewer.
The best 3 are:
"Cannibal Holocaust"
"Jungle Holocaust"
"Cannobal Apocalypse"
"Ferox" is okay (mostly down to the location shooting, the score and John Morghen's balls-out performance) but is far to slow in bringing in the cannibals, is too padded with New York footage and has some poor FX (like the awful dick chopping scene), that are filmed full on in bright light to show just how much they look like latex.
Something Deodato was wise enough not to do and as such the deaths in "Can Holo" are much more disturbing.
And when it comes to full on, close up gore he betters Lenzi as well, as the butchery sequence in "Jungle Holocaust" is up close but looks 100 times better than anything in "Ferox".
So good in fact Lenzi stole it for his "Eaten Alive".
