Review

There's an important lesson to be learned in Cannibal Terror: if you're hiding out from the law in the middle of the jungle enjoying the hospitality of some friends, it is extremely impolite to rape your hostess for no reason.

Somebody should have dropped this wisdom on our idiotic kidnappers before they took off for the jungle with a hot girl and a young hostage in tow. Don't they read Miss Manners in criminal school? Anyway, it is when these bumbling idiots decides to break the cardinal rule of house-guestery that they get cast out of the sanctuary and tied to a tree by their rape victim. There, they fall victim to some hungry people eaters in this shameless slice of exploitation that features obviously European "cannibals" in a jungle that resembles a suburban backyard, female nudity from a couple of gorgeous European chicks, ridiculous gore effects and the above-mentioned rape. Sure, it's tacky and unconvincing, but it sure as shit delivers the sleaze.
