Cannibal Holocaust

A must see movie for all lovers of HORROR and GORE!!

For those unfirmiliar with the film it was made in 1979 (i believe) by Italian film maker Ruggero Deoato. It was the Blair Witch of its time and but much better!

Its about 3 film makers that travel to the "Green Infreno" to film a doco about the people living there ... but go missing (very spooky set up) ...

The special edition has been out for some time so if you havent seen it your missing out!

NOT FOR THE FAINT HEARTED!! A great little horror pic and one of my favs!

"Cannibal Holocaust" you say? Don't believe the name rings a bell.

Maybe not so much a *classic* - but simply having a cult following.

it's not a classic it's just infamous. IMO it doesn't fit in with psycho, TCM, halloween etc. in the classic category.
