Basically Cannibal Holocaust revisited, only not as brutal, intelligent or innovative. Decent for the gore gags and good for a laugh at the silly dialogue, but overall, it's clear this is just an unashamed ripoff - even the animal deaths are pretty much the same. Check it out...( read more)
There are so many versions of this movie floating around that I have absolutely no idea what was cut from the version I saw, and what wasn't. All I know is that it was the recent Grindhouse Releasing version.

This board looks lonely. Be the first to talk about "Cannibal Ferox" !
