Cannibal (2006)

My rating - 6/10

(click on images below for larger versions)

A young man with a desire to eat another person places an advert on the internet looking for a willing victim. When he meets someone who wants to be eaten his fantasy becomes reality.

Controversial director Marian Dora gives us a genuinely nasty little movie that was filmed in just a week with only 2000 Euros. Based on the real life case of Armin Meiwes, also known as the Rottenburg Cannibal, it's story that's worth reading up on for those with a strong stomach. Speaking of strong stomachs, you'll need one to get through this movie as Dora doesn't hold back and presents the very realistic gore in full, close up detail. There's a lot of full frontal male nudity and some quite explicit sex which can also be pretty shocking for some. It's well shot and made considering the micro budget. The acting is also pretty good. It's unflinching, brutal and definitely not for everyone so do your research first if you're only just starting out geting into extreme cinema. I quite like this one, but as said, know your limits before watching.
