10 Things You Definitely Googled After Watching These Horror Films

At a first watch, Soylent Green has a truly outstanding twist at play.

In Richard Fleischer's 1973 Charlton Heston-starrer, the kicker for this future dystopian world is that the food substance that has managed to sustain the planet and keep humanity ticking over in these times of poverty, overpopulation and pollution is actually human flesh.

To be precise, as Heston's Thorn famously proclaimed about the movie's titular food, "Soylent Green is people!"

After that grim twist is revealed, many moviegoers will start thinking about a whole number of things. Are we destined for a polluted future where there are too many people for the planet to cope with? And if so, will the regular food supplies run out? And if that really is the case, could we ever possibly survive by living off the flesh of our fellow man?

Having had just such a Google, it turns out that, yes, we would actually be able to just about survive by eating human bodies. There would be a high risk of picking up certain diseases from the bodies being eaten, but the human digestion system would largely be able to work perfectly fine by existing on a diet solely of human flesh and organs.

In a fun fact from this foray online, the average human thigh alone contains approximately 10,000 calories to devour.
