If you thought remaking Faces of Death was controversial, wait until you hear this one... Relevant Entertainment have picked up the rights to the 1980's exploitation movie Cannibal Holocaust that was infamously banned from dozens of countries including the U.K. because of it's gore, violence and several scenes of rape and cruelty to animals (6 were killed on set). It's only in the last five years that it has been made officially available in the U.K. (although only in it's edited form) and it's still to this day banned in countries like New Zealand. Plot info from Coming Soon... The film centers on a professor traveling to South America to find out what happened to a film crew that disappeared while shooting a documentary about reputed cannibal tribes. He eventually discovers the remains of the crew and several reels of undeveloped film, which show the disastrous consequences of the crew's decision to provoke the natives. There was rumours for a long time that it may have even been a "snuff film" which even led to the director Ruggero Deodato being put in jail until he could convince the authority's that his actors in the film were unharmed. I've never seen the movie but I certainly know of it. Like I've said before it was one of those video nasties here in the UK like The Evil Dead and Texas Chain Saw Massacre that had such a huge stature in this country because of there banned status. So we are to be subjected to more torture porn no doubt on our screens....I blame Hostel and Rob Zombie's movies for this. Actually it wouldn't surprise me if either of those guys were given the job to direct it. source - variety, coming soon
