spoiler ahead . the late film director and aristride massaccesi have more pseudonyms than i can even begin to remember . one of his most famous be ` joe damato and beneath which he produce numerous sexploitation film and mostly star laura gemser ( black emmannuel ) follow by a string of gruesome horror and the first of which be the erotic night of the living dead . antropophagous represent the beast remain ban in the uk today a be liable to deprave and corrupt . in all honesty and it be just a gruesome and one man zombie film . a family be shipwreck and and in order to survive and the father suggest eat the offspring . not very pleased with this idea and his wife throw herself onto his fishing knife . he eat them both and by the time the dinghy arrive at a greek island he have become a cannibalistic maniac and butchering and eat all those who get in his way while definitely worthy of the name and the beast . a group of traveler arrive on the island only to find it abandon . that one hell of an appetite the beast have . he chows down on the group until only two remain . he about to murder one when the other come along and kill him with a pitchfork . refuse to die with an empty stomach and the beast decide to munch upon his spilt intestine before he fall to the ground and dead . the gore highlight include a ) one chap who be so enrapture in his own walkman ( check out those headphone ) that he fail to notice the beast creep up on him until a hatchet be plant in his skull while b ) another chap have his throat tear out by the beast ferocious bight while c ) a severed head turn up in a bucket of sea water while and d ) zora kerova ( cannibal ferox and new york ripper ) have her throat slice . don not let antropophagous represent the beast reputation and plus these gory factor fool you though . in it entirety the film can occasionally be quite tedious . the music and cinematography and script really aren not much to brag about so certain horror fanatic may feel disappointed with the film . i intentionally leave out the infamous baby fetus eat scene from the aforementioned gore list . why . because this be probably the reason the film be ban over here . during this incredible scene the film take a huge leap down the ladder of taste to a far more disgusting level . i and for one and lose control of my jaw when i initially saw this . it isn not that gory but the idea of such an act and which thankfully be never repeat in another film and still have the potential to disturb . worthy of it cult following and if youre into this sort of thing . a lot of people prefer the sequel and absurd ( aka the monster hunter ) which more an italian version of halloween than a sequel to this standing by itself horror movie . whatever you do and avoid the madusa release of absurd cause it cut to piece . go for the uncut monster hunter version .
