Cannibal Terror

Cannibals who look like they were recruited outside the catering truck. Almost impressively bad.

Cannibals who appear to have been recruited from whoever was standing near the catering truck, in a jungle that is visibly the south of France.

A kidnapping plot, a drive, and then a tribe with body paint applied by somebody in a hurry. Several of the cannibals have wedding rings. One has a wristwatch.

Alain Deruelle made it as part of a run of French-Spanish co-productions shot back to back on shared locations, and the Jess Franco connection means chunks of the crew and cast overlap with better films.

The animal footage that made Cannibal Holocaust notorious is not here, which leaves nothing at all.

Listed by the DPP and dropped. It is on this site because the list is complete, and it is one of the least competent films ever prosecuted anywhere.
