Massimo Foschi and Ivan Rassimov star as Robert and Rolf, two scientists working for an oil company who lead an expedition to an island near South America. Soon after arriving, things begin to go awry, as they gradually begin to realize that they are trapped in the jungle with an ancient cannibalistic tribe. When two members of the team are captured, along with the entire advance team, Robert and Rolf must find a way to infiltrate the cannibals' camp and free their soon to be eaten friends.

"The Last Cannibals" is definitely not a classic cannibal film in the sense that it is just about the disgust. There is also a suspenseful story that can be followed, just with the difference that you occasionally close your eyes when animals are killed here. Otherwise, the film shows that sometimes we simply have to do truly horrifying things if we want to preserve our own lives. It is not perfect, not by any means, but compared to similar pieces, it still stands out strongly.

The same rating has Cannibal Holocaust. Very good in terms of rawness and exploitation terror, with terrible actors, of course, but what else can you expect from the Italians. The scene where they kill and butcher a crocodile was over the top, even for me, and I’m not one of those who would want to see the director’s head on a stick for killing a monkey or a turtle. The music is good, likewise the gore (though there’s not that much of it), so I have no choice but to recommend the The Last Cannibal World – naturally, only to those who know what to expect.
