THE CANNIBAL MAN
Eloy de la Iglesia, Spain, 1972, Severin Films, Cult“Legit shocked that something as blatantly homo-centric and anti-fascist as this actually made it past the Spanish censors in 1972.” - Liz, LETTERBOXD
From subversive Spanish writer/director Eloy de la Iglesia, CANNIBAL MAN is a “Video Nasty” that remains among the most notorious and misunderstood shockers of the 1970s. When a slaughterhouse worker accidentally kills a man during a fight, he triggers a desperate descent into madness and mass murder. Part arthouse horror and part exploitive sleaze, CANNIBAL MAN has been newly restored from the original camera negative.
