Gilliangirl Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 What about Cannibal Holocaust? It's not considered an horror movie but it's enough to give some people nightmares Bad movie and worse director.... Animal crueltyMany of the censorship issues with Cannibal Holocaust concern the on-screen killings of animals' date=' which remains a major issue today. Seven animals were killed during the film's production, six of which are seen on screen:[1'] A coatimundi (mistaken as a muskrat in the film) is stabbed multiple times in the neck by an actor. A large turtle (about three feet long) is captured in the water and dragged to shore, where it is then decapitated and its limbs and shell removed. The actors proceed to cook and eat the turtle. A large spider is killed with a machete. A snake is killed with a machete. A squirrel monkey has its face cut off with a machete. A pig is kicked twice and then shot with a rifle. Many condemn this as animal cruelty for the purpose of mere sensationalism and only to attract controversy, and it has also been called "animal torture." Deodato himself has condemned his past actions,[8] saying "it was stupid to introduce animals."[28] ^ While in the movie it appears that only six animals are killed, the scene depicting the monkey's death was shot twice, resulting in the death of two monkeys. Both of the animals were eaten by indigenous cast members (who consider monkey brains a delicacy).[5] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowdown Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Yeah. Don't go in for what passes as a horror flick these days. High on gore - Low on substance. Take Psycho for an eg. You never saw the actual murder,excepting the small blood splatter on the shower screen,as compared to the tides of gore & meat thats too freely thrown at us now. The old Hammer movies were scary as fukc too for their time without showing gore. Christopher Lee as Dracula-CLASSIC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
