Cult classic movie about a documentary film crew that disappears into the South America jungles while searching for cannibal tribes, and the search party sent after them.
The reason why this film has become so "must see" is simple: violence and sex. Since Cannibal Holocaust was made in 1980, with pretty low budget, the 70's adult movie influences are very visible. Sometimes it looks like a snuff film. And since the animal rights movements were nothing like today, the animal killings are real.
Apparently the movie was banned in over 50 countries. But what I really admire about this film is that it is almost like a documentary. The way it's shot and how realistic it is.
Very much a must see if only you have the stomach.
