Cannibal Holocaust (1980)
Synopsis
In 1979, intent on venturing into the vast and
unexplored areas of the virgin Amazon rainforest, a small American film
crew attempt to make a documentary about the region's indigenous
cannibalistic tribes, only to disappear without a trace. As the noted
anthropologist, Harold Monroe, and his team of seasoned guides embark on
a rescue mission to locate the missing documentarians in the heart of
the Green Inferno, fearful tribes that no white has ever seen before
will soon start to take interest in them. Inevitably, as the professor
unearths more evidence about the fate of the film crew by sheer luck, a
desperate battle to recover the raw footage that was paid in blood will
commence--after all, the world must know the savage and unspeakable
atrocities captured on the riveting unedited footage. In the end, what
has really happened to the overambitious explorers, and the shocking
final two reels?
