What critics compared Last Cannibal World to
Beyond any of that, Deodato simply approaches the film with a level of gravity and commitment not to be found in any of the other prominent cannibal films, not even his own earlier Jungle Holocaust/Last Cannibal World .
(Ilsa, incidentally, showed up at my screening, prompting one of the more culturally sensitive splatterpunks to holler from the balcony, "Fuck you, Nazi bitch!") Especially since Italian director-cum-asshole Ruggero Deodato's follow-up to his own pace-setting The Last Survivor (now more popularly known as Jungle Holocaust) takes only slightly less delight in concocting ever-escalating dioramas of ruthless, demented brutality as Deodato himself seems all too eager to blame his film's existence on the cult audience's bloodlust.
