I've got a question for those who seen Italian cannibal movies.
Since the animals were actually killed in movies like "Cannibal Holocaust", "Ferox", "Jungle Holocaust", "Mountain of the Cannibal God", " Eaten Alive!" and "Man from Deep River", do you think it's wrong to kill animals on film that isn't make up or puppet effects?

I'd be a monster for saying no, so I say yeah it is pretty wrong. And it makes my girlfriend cry. :( poor little creatures. But that is also why I like it so much kinda, yeah, no. Makes the movie more sinister. I dont condone these theatrics now but scince its allready done and over with I embrase it.

For entertainment, it is gross, and inexcuseable.
It's a life one way or another, and I personally found that in the case of cannibal holocaust, it didn't add anything but even more of a distasteful feel to it. Some people are into that, I myself, am not. I've said this on numerous occasions, after seeing that movie but once, I've wanted to punch the teeth down the throat of whoever made the call to kill those animals for the sake of what I still think is a pretty trashy film. (again, just my opinion, don't bother arguing it - each to their own, each with a right to express as such). Short answer: Yes, I feel it is wrong. |

And are you an animal rights person, a PETA member or a Vegetarian?

I am none of those things.
I'm not an activist but I do believe in animal rights, and defend them when I'm able. I also donate to the RSPCA (which is like our version of the humane society here), of course I COULD do more, but my finances and time availablility don't allow for it. Needless to say, I do more than the majority. I am not vegetarian, but I do believe that if an animal is to be killed, it should be for food, warmth, or in self defence - Not for entertainment, ever. Yes, I consume animal products...yet before you call me a hypocrite, as seems to be the path you're going down here, I have simply come to the logical realisation that if I myself were to stop buying meat, no animal would be spared. So, unless you can line up no less than about 100,000 people in every state of the country in which I reside, the amount it would take to make but a small dent in the ongoing market slaughter of the animals here, I'd consider changing my dietary habits a waste of time, as would ceasing to purchase it serve only as a limit on my intended career. |

Yeah. I'm gonna stay away from these flics from now on. Its got nothin to do with whether or not you are an animal rights protestor or not. Its just wrong and the people making these films should be shot.

The upcoming DVD of "Cannibal Holocaust" will include a version that has human gore and no animal killing just for the senistive viewer.
Heck even Apocalypse Now, Pink Flamingos, Men Behind the Sun, and Hell of the Living Dead ( a.k.a. Night of the Zombies, Zombie Creeping Flesh) had real animals getting killed as well but they did made a law back in 1983 to ban killing animals on film real ones i mean but it's ok to do fake ones.
