Cannibal Holocaust (1980)

Option 1Can't Watch?

Audio sounds demonic? Video not playing/delay while scrolling? Use the "Can't Watch?" tab.

If the movie didn't load, you're being blocked by a security service in use here. Can happen for a number of reasons. Or your specific device/browser might be throwing up weird errors.

Click this first

A new tab will open and a basic security check like a captcha will be performed. After completing the check, close that page and return here.

Refresh this page. Wait 30 secs. The movie should load and you can just hit play.



If it still doesn't play, Click here to watch the movie

The movie should now start playing in a new tab of your browser or begin downloading to your device. This option has the minor disadvantage that English-language movies with optional subtitles in the movie player will not include these subs with this method.

The new system here has been designed keeping in mind even people with low internet speeds sub-8mbps. Even if you have a really bad connection, you should still be able to watch the movie without any issues if you:
Start the movie. Pause it. Wait for 30-45 seconds. Start playing again.

This 'Can't Watch' method really only works if it's your specific device/browser that's interfering with the player. There is no real advantage of speed here. Or if there is a temp network glitch or read lag from the server disk.

On iPhones, especially older ones, use Chrome instead of Safari. Might help.

IMPORTANT: Please make sure that the newly opened tab is not an ad popup asking you to download some software or whatever. Close any such popups and don't download any software - those are ads. Nothing is needed to be done by you other than to complete the security check which is often automated.

AKA: Ruggero Deodato’s Cannibal Holocaust
Year: 1980
Directed by: Ruggero Deodato
Starring: Robert Kerman (Prof. Monroe), Gabriel Yorke (Alan), Francesca Ciardi (Faye), Luca Giorgio Barbareschi (Mark), Perry Pirkanen (Jack)
Country: Italy, European Cinema
Language: English (Optional Eng Subs for foreign parts)
Runtime: 01:35:40
Genres: Cannibalism, Violence against Men, Rape-Sexual-Violence against Women, Gore-Gruesome-Splatter, Torture, Violence Against-Relationships with Animals

Plot – Spoilers:
A crew of four cocky documentary makers who routinely push the boundaries of journalistic ethics head deep into the Amazonian rain forests to film undiscovered cannibal tribes. We pick up from them having gone missing, and so an anthropologist, Prof. Monroe is commissioned by the broadcasting corporation that financed the project, to follow the missing crew’s trail and uncover what came of them.

Monroe has a couple of guides to help him and they begin by making contact with the Yacumo tribe who are relatively benign compared to the fierce and cannibalistic Swamp People and Tree People whom Monroe believes might be responsible for the crew’s unknown fate.

As we follow the mission, we’re lavished with copious scenes of animal torture and brutal sexual violence as Monroe’s rescue team uncovers darker aspects about the missing filmmakers and the cannibal tribes.

Cannibal Holocaust pretty much pioneered the concept of found-footage in films and is a true masterpiece by any standard with great music, though its shock-value has often detracted from this truth.

Director Ruggero Deodato was actually arrested in Italy soon after Cannibal Holocaust’s release following claims that he had made a snuff movie. One of the major issues related to the infamous impalement scene and allegations that actors had been killed on location.

Animal cruelty is hard to see past, but it is a solid movie. 3/5

Boring, Overhyped, the message it’s trying to get across is very ironic and overall it’s just not a good movie. Watch Ang Lee’s Hulk instead.

I absolutely love some elements but hate others. The production story of this movie alone is pretty grim. I do not condone the actions committed to create any of this interesting piece of cinema and movie history. The animal cruelty? Very unnecessary and made the movie pretty hypocritical for engaging in the same exploitative activities it has set out to criticize. There’s no denying that this movie is deeply unethical and flawed. BUT… despite those awful flaws, the intention seems to have a good point of social commentary. And not only that, but some of the acting was pretty great. Especially the convincing acts the film crew puts on as we are to believe they’re sadistic assholes. Honestly didn’t act too far from what basically would be the modern equivalent of one of those insufferable irl prank/harassment nuisance streamers. Only member of the film crew who is much more civilized and mature than the others, Faye, though… she definitely didn’t deserve her death like the others, but you can also say her almost lack of ability to act is a representation of how enabling such actions as the film crew can also lead to suffering the same consequences as them. The movie almost serves as a warning to these types of horrid behaviors. The story in this movie is another part that works pretty well and is slightly grounded in reality which I appreciate. A team is called to search for the film crew and find their remains, take back… Read more »

This is my 3rd or 4th time seeing this film and it is still shocking after repeated views. It has a real authentic quality to it because Americans are taught to be fucking assholes from birth all the way through high school. When the film crew are terrorizing the natives and burning down their village they seem like it is just another routine day of being fucking assholes, thinking there will be no consequences. The animal slaughters are very brutal and hard to watch as well. This movie set the standard for this type of found footage genre in films. 4 and a half stars.

The director must really have been asking to end up in jail by keeping the actors hidden, making us believe that they genuinely were killed in the making of this damn film. It’s already bad enough that they killed real defenseless animals.

I watched this movie because of all the hype surrounding it. Seeing actual slaughter of animals and the rape of the 13 year old was fucked up.

Pretty trash movie with no real plot. Holy shit the crew of the first expedition… They were literally just a bunch of nazis coming in and harassing, raping and murdering the tribes-people. Guess that’s where the movie title came from… What did they honestly expect would happen? I actually cheered for the cannibals when they slaughtered those pieces of shit.

Very well done for a low budget 80s horror film. Gore galore, just cheesy enough to be believable. I am delighted with the fact that this film spawned a whole new sub-genre of horror, the found footage films (my favorites).
