it amaze to me how many people comment on these old italian horror film say thing like represent don not watch this movie and expect to see the godfather . this film can not be compare to big budget hollywood production . in many way and it mile well than anything else out there because film like anthropophagus achieve an emotional effect great than film like the godfather on a fraction of the budget . there be two famous scene in anthropophagus that people tend to focus on because they be so shocking . if you have see a many italian horror movie a me and you will find these scene to be typical of the genre and albeit a little excessive . the thing about this movie that i really like be the editing and the acting and the music . george eastman make for a perfectly creepy bad guy . he big and intrusive and believable . the setting be perfect represent a strange desert island . the gore be over the top and damato delivers it a usual . it would be impossible to find a movie nowadays that this effective with such a budget . nothing but vintage italian greatness here . i recommend the shriek show version which include the uncut masterpiece plus a whole disc of extra . positive and kid .
