The Movie: Few video nasties have justly earned their reputation as much as Ruggero Deodato's Cannibal Holocaust. Made in 1980 it remains a truly disturbing movie, all the more so on account of its faux-documentary mixed with found footage approach. Deodato faced huge controversy at the time of its release and was even accused of making a snuff movie - he had to bring his actors into a court room to prove that they were still alive. The Gory Death: After gang raping a young girl from the indigenous Yamonamo tribe, the rest of the tribe mete out their own particular brand of justice by impaling the victim on a spike which runs through her body from between her legs and out of her mouth. A more unpleasant death would be hard to imagine. The tribe get their revenge on the unethical filmmakers soon enough, killing them off and mutilating their corpses in a hideous manner.
