3 out of 5 stars.
Adult Stuff-
After 10- OK, simple idea, what happened to the other group. Great, let's go!
After 40- Found the footage, kinda.
By The End- I was conflicted.
After Checking IMDB- Written by Gianfranco Clerici and Directed by Ruggero Deodato this film for the time caused quite a stir. Looking back at it now it could be described as a Blairwitch style found footage flick with an underlying message about the state of competitiveness in TV ratings at the time.
To imagine it in the day, it could have been akin to the "torture porn" of the last decade.
I had never heard about this movie until I was reading up on "The Green Inferno", and why it took so long to come out. I came across an article that referenced both movies, and felt I should watch it to better understand the article by Brett Arnold.
After reading the article and watching the movie I do not agree with Brett, but was grateful to learn about this movie.
If you like cannibal movies, and enjoy older films then this one should be on your list. If you prefer your films with high production, and a modern feel, then you may want to pass on this one.
Until next time everybody, remember, Protect Your Privates!
Spoilers**
**I believe animals were harmed in the making of the film so if that bothers you then skip the film.
**The penis trauma is at 1:24:50 to 1:25:10
