unfortunately, cannibal holocaust isn't available yet on dvd that i'm aware of but i have faith shreik show will eventually unleash it to the masses just like they did with jungle holocaust. this has to be one of the finest releases i've seen on shriek show & there are many goodies here. there is a packet of lobby cards for starters, some interviews with the cast & director, & original theatrical trailers for other disturbing cannibal or pyschological films released by none other than wonderful shreik show. muchas gracia shreik show! although i've never seen any of the much talked about cannibal classics by lenzi or deodato, i have to admit this film was quite entertaining & not nearly as sickening as i thought it would be. infact, this is more of an old-fashioned "we braved the wilderness" type of survival story with a bit of a romantic twist. having said that, i couldn't watch this film every anymore than one would watch hannibal lector films around the clock. jungle holocaust has moments of suspense which will literally make your skin crawl & scenes of graphic violence so it's certainly not intended for all viewers but most horror/ action fans will find this to be a real find. the acting here is incredible & i agree with the reviewer who stated that hollywood actors nowadays wouldn't go through what these guys did back in the '70s. jungle holocaust does have a relatively good ending although it's far from being a happy ever after. as you've probably read or heard, the love affair between our protagonist & the lovely phillipina is relatively shortened & doesn't end up very pretty. cannibal holocaust evidentally was based upon a true story from what i've read & is bound to generate atleast an upset stomach after viewing from many a viewer but certainly recommended if you are curious or if have seen other films in this genre. needless to say, i'd definately give ruggero deodato another try after viewing this disc in the future. happy viewings!
