ScreamCast 65: To Cannibal Ferox And Beyond!
This week we stumble into Italian blood-soaked madness with three releases from Grindhouse Releasing: The Beyond, Cannibal Holocaust and Cannibal Ferox! Lucio Fulci is indeed a “Master Of Gore” but what makes The Beyond one of his most beloved works? Also, are there redeeming any merits in the Cannibal sub-genre in today’s society? We also introduce another chance to win some goodies including coffee and another Arrow blu-ray!
The Flicks:
The Beyond (1981)
Director: Lucio Fulci
Written By: Dardano Sacchetti
Starring: Catriona MacColl, David Warbeck, Cinzia Monreale
The seven dreaded gateways to hell are concealed in seven cursed places… And on the day the gates of hell are opened, the dead will walk the earth!
From legendary Italian horror master Lucio Fulci comes the ultimate classic of supernatural terror.
A cursed hotel, built over one of the seven gateways to hell, becomes a malevolent abyss that begins devouring both the bodies and the souls of all who enter in a graphic frenzy of gory crucifixions, brutal chain-whippings, eyeball impalements, sulphuric acid meltdowns, flesh-eating tarantulas, throat-shredding demon dogs and ravenous bloodthirsty zombies.
THE BEYOND is a towering achievement in hair-raising, mind-bending cinematic terror! [Grindhouse Releasing]
Cannibal Holocaust (1980)
Director: Ruggero Deodato
Written By: Gianfranco Clerici
Starring: Robert Kerman, Francesca Ciardi, Perry Pirkanen
THE ONE THAT GOES ALL THE WAY! Banned and heavily censored the world over, here is a film that surpasses its reputation as a shot-gun blast to the senses. CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST presents the “found footage” of a group of four documentary filmmakers who experience brutal death at the hands of a savage South American tribe of flesh-eaters.
This footage is so intense, so graphic and so unflinching in its realism that the director and producer of CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST were arrested upon its original release and the film seized.
Nothing you have seen before will prepare you for this uncompromising masterpiece of cinematic nihilism. Grindhouse Releasing proudly presents the definitive release of the most controversial movie ever made! [Grindhouse Releasing]
Cannibal Ferox (1981)
Director: Umberto Lenzi
Written By: Umberto Lenzi
Starring: Giovanni Lombardo Radice, Lorraine De Selle, Danilo Mattei
Here it is! The original uncensored, unrated director’s cut of one of the most notorious and violent films of all time. Banned in 31 countries, CANNIBAL FEROX assaults your senses as a group of Americans lost in the jungles of Amazonia experience brutal retribution at the hands of bloo...
