Zombie Holocaust could easily have been called Cannibal Holocaust had another Italian gorefest from the same period not already snagged that title.

Horrid, disgusting, gross. And that’s just the script. The violence is pretty disgusting too. That is the only reason to watch this pretty bad film - for the violence. Even that isn’t really worth watching it for. There is an attractive naked blonde woman. Really it just has terrible acting, no tension or atmosphere, bad dubbing, shockingly bad direction and the worst script on this planet. The bloody violent practical effects are good and nothing else.

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars

I'm reviewing the zombie holocaust version this version is really silly yet is fun combination to Lucio Fulci's zombie and Cannibal Holocaust which there's some scenes from the movie zombie which they borrow that scene into this movie and it's really graphic and gory and really 42nd street history.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

a good addition to the great cannibal holocaust and cannibal ferox. its a similar movie, a bunch of Italians find out that cannibals exist, they venture out to go find them, and barely escape being killed and eaten. its a timeless story.

This is what happens if you watch Cannibal Holocaust at breakfast, followed by Zombie Flesh Eaters at lunch and The Island of Doctor Moreau in the evening ... then go to bed and write a script. I like this film sure it's silly has a ludicrous ending and is probably offensive to the indigenous folk of every country on earth, but it's fun never dull and it means no real harm. A pure Beer & Pizza gore flick give it a go if you like Italian Cannibal films.
