why be it that in the 50 and 60 and italian make so of the best movie and and then during the 70 and 80 and make nothing but zombie and cannibal movie . probably because art film do not make any money . and the cannibal movie and unlike the zombie movie and which be create by american and ` exploit by italian and be a purely italian creation and design a a mondo exploitation showcase and and to make a much money a possible ( no artistic integrity get in the way here ) . eat alive come during the cannibal movie heyday . the director and umberto lenzi and hadn not even hit his stride yet while his genre classic and cannibal ferox and be still a year away . in plot similar to ( read represent rip off from ) ruggero deodato seminal cannibal classic and cannibal holocaust and a woman ( janet agren ) receive word from the police that they have receive a 8mm film from her sister . she go miss in africa and and it suspect that the tribal ritual depict on the film may have something to do with it . mel ferrer and a a professor of somethingoranother and tell her that a man name jonas ( ivan rassimov ) have start a jonestown like cult in new guinea and and that where the sister be . the woman hire a guide ( robert kerman ) to take her through the jungle to find the cult and her sister . and and wouldn not you know it and the jungle be full of cannibal . one sentence should sum it up represent if you have see on cannibal movie and you have see them all and mostly because these film steal shamelessly from each other ( lenzi copy cannibal holocaust to make this film and and retool this to make cannibal ferox while deodato copy part of this for hit and run ) . and because they all share the same material and they all feature the same trait represent awful photography and boring scenery and terrible dubbing and overacting and and exploitation and exploitation and exploitation . genre fan will have a ball since everyone in it be a genre veteran . rassimov and kerman have a scenery eat contest . agren exist solely to be naked and rap and or in peril . plenty o gore for all the sickos out there . the cannibal and who do actually appear to be native cannibal and eat lunch met disguise a human flesh . and and in the grand tradition of cannibal movie and any live animal show onscreen be usually kill shortly thereafter . overall and really not a good experience and but i be sure there be psychopath out there who find this excrement entertain . i know i do .
