Jungle Holocaust aka Ultimo Mondo Cannibale aka Last Cannibal World 2 stars

... aka a lot of other things, lol. I had three of these things lined up and as I started to read about all the alternate titles and versions etc I realised, crap – I’m gonna end up with three versions of the same movie here, aren’t I? But thankfully that wasn’t the case.

Anyway … this one is wonderfully cheap, wonderfully gorey, and most of all I was happy to find I haven’t seen it before. I’m just not sure I find the idea of cannibalism as terrifying as I once did (I’m sure they used to be up there with Gorgons for me or something). If the idea of cannibalism in itself doesn’t send chills down your spine, all you’re left with in most of these movies is a bunch of indiscriminate killing of people usually ultimately proven to be practically deserving of their fate through some form of idiocy. Since there are certainly gorier cannibal movies than this one and this has little else to offer, I’m afraid I really can’t recommend it unless you’re an obsessive of the genre.
