SOURCE-Kino Lober Blu ray
This infamous Cannibals in Atlanta Italian made fiim. And I finally got a good copy.
Start off with John Saxon over in the Nam War. His troop slaughters some enemies fleeing a cave. Then they find two PWOs. One who is Jonathan Morgan.
SKip ahead and Saxon is back stateside. In Atlanta. Morgan calls him wantiing to go get a beer,but Saxon says he is busy. So Morgan wanders off to see a movie. Which is a Nam War film made by the same director as this film.
In the theater Morgan starts having flashbacks,and we are left to wonder if the movie's war scenes or the couple in front of him making out,trigger all this. Morgan freaks out and bites the woman in front of him on the neck.ANd boom we got cannibals on the loose in Atlanta Georgia.
Pretty sure first time I heard of this movie was on a list of Video Nasties. And I got vague memories of seeing this off a vhs. Which I am betting was the cut for US version. Then next time I saw it was uncut in a not so great looking copy on youtube. This Kino Lober Blu ray looks great. So good that the Nam stock footage in the beginning really doesnt match up with the footage of Saxon and his platoon.
There is a commentary. An almost hour long documentary on the film. Plus some interviews. And trailers and stuff.
Really a loaded release for a film that I feel has been forgotten in favor of Ferox or Holocaust.
Cannibal Apocalypse gets a B.
