Immediately banned in many countries after its release, Joe D'Amato's Italian Gore Classic "Antropophagus" of 1980 is a truly disturbing and immensely scary video nasty, and fans of ultra-violent and nasty Horror should not be disappointed. Potential viewers have to be warned, ho...( read more)
Although overrated, Antropophagus is a decent slasher and a fair entry for Italian gore horror. It's slow, though - very slow, and very talky, and the payoff may not be worth the wait for some viewers. Indeed, considering Antropophagus' nasty reputation, the gore is fairly ligh...( read more)
i think i must've seen the cut version which can't have helped my rating. i don't remember anyone getting their fetus eaten or anything that sickeningly funny? what i do remember from last nights viewing was that watching this film keeps you tense almost from start to finish. so ...( read more)
Epic sleaze from the master of the genre, D'Amato. It's your old standard tale of a group of (not quite) young people vacationing on a Greek Isle who run afowl of a madman who, after nearly starving to death, ate his wife and their infant child. Now he's insane and wants to mak...( read more)
The movie has blood, gore, or brutal death sequences that are not easy forgetable. "Antropophagus" is a suspenseful movie that creates a creepy atmosphere based on an eerie Greek ghost town, an easy to follow but interesting plot, and believable performances.
The Grim Reaper as this movie was called in English film markets was director Joe D'Amato's first true foray into the horror genre. Previously he had made Sexploitation horror movies, which were big during the 70s. Although being his first true horror film this film will forever ...( read more)
hilariously bad of course but the second act dragged on and on and on. it could have been worse and by worse i mean better, obviously. but i will not cast it aside entirely. some scenes are purely cinematographic achievements for a porno director.
Flat out 5 stars for the visceral italian style gore in the vein of Dr. Butcher M.D. and Fulci's Zombi. Joe D'Amato lets loose his exploitation, world wide banned masterpiece with comic book blood, shaky cameras, a skinned rabbit along with one forced abortion you have to see to ...( read more)
The perfect slasher film. The Italians at the time of this release where mainly known for three things: Giallo, ultra gory Zombie flicks or shocking Cannibal features. While the slasher genre was taking off in the US thanks to the success of Halloween and Friday the 13th it was t...( read more)
Why do I keep attending these midnight shows? I saw this one expecting cheesy gore fest. But Anthropophagous makes little sense at times, my version had the oh so sought after gore scenes of the slasher/monster character pulling a fetus out of a women to eat it and him attempting...( read more)
