SLAVE OF THE CANNIBAL GOD
(AKA: LA MONTAGNA DEL DIO CANNIBALE)(1978)
In the set: 100 Greatest Cult Classics
A typical "in the jungle where you don't belong
so ya all gunna die" tale! Ursala plays a woman
looking for her husband and taking several dudes
along with her: her brother and an anthropologist,
along with several others to help with carrying
supplies and such! Eventually they run into
cannibals, and the rest is history! Some nudity
but it appears that this copy has been edited
to take out Ursala's! C
From a reviewer at IMDb.com:
I can't figure out why these late 1970s, Italian
cannibal adventures intrigue me so much. I always
get disgusted when they kill animals for the sake
of a stupid movie, and yet time and time again,
I'm drawn to movies like SLAVE OF THE CANNIBAL
GOD, which, in this case, I saw under its uncut
European version, MOUNTAIN OF THE CANNIBAL GOD.
I had thought that with big names like Ursulla
Andres and Stacey Keach involved, this one would
be at least a little cleaner than CANNIBAL
HOLOCAUST, the most notorious of the genre.
As another of those "movies we love to hate",
I recommend this one if it's easily accessible.
Fans of Andres will enjoy seeing her naked, of
course. As a jungle adventure, it succeeds and
the occasional gore makes it that much more
intense. Scenes of humans bleeding are faked,
but as is often the case, the scenes of animals
(i.e. a monitor lizard) bleeding are way too
authentic. I don't advise eating spagheti while
watching this story of some lady seeking her
missing husband in a dense jungle, and stumbling
upon "The Puka", a group of cannibals (one of
which is a dwarf; added for comic relief). - damonfoster
