disgusting, overrated, pointless

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Francene Odetta
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Well, I think this film is pretty good viewing....lots of naked and hot women, tons of over-the-top gore, strange themes of incest and cannibalism...I think it warrants at least a rental and the upcoming Blu-Ray release has a lot of extras. The stars are all pretty well known - Ashlie Rhey from Playboy, Paul Logan from Days Of Our Lives, Scott Carson of MTV fame, Regina Russell, hottest woman in the world and directed by Mike Tristano, who has churned out some unusual but always watchable films. This one, is odd....at times you'll feel like you are watching something very artistic and then it flips you right around and you know that the main purpose here is to shock and titillate. It does give you the creeps however...you'll want to wash your hands at least once after watching this film.

I've started working, and so there isn't much time for me to watch movies like I used to do before. So what I'd expected when I choose a film to watch, I am hoping to see a film that's worth to watch.But that was not the case with this film. This film sucked big time. And the fact that the running time is 2hours just compounded the suckiness(?)So where's the cannibalism ? Where's the twisted mind of a psychopath or a serial killer wanting to kill ? I only see many not-so-pretty women engaged in various sexual acts. And Hell no, it didn't turn me on. All it achieve is to make to switch the TV off.The dialogs were painful to watch.. And the acting, urrrrggg is plain awful!Mys suggestion; go find some other films to watch.

I didn't seek out "Cannibal Taboo" expecting to see the "Citizen Kane of Gore" or even something in the "Evil Dead" caliber of film making. My expectations were considerably lower; I'd read that it's a sexploitation film with gore and I wasn't disappointed.The actors & actresses knew their lines (they didn't even seem to be reading them off cue cards!) and the girls were all very pretty (which helps in any film that capitalizes on nudity). I thoroughly enjoyed the Lovecraftian references and the occult ritual scenes were both well-played and nicely photographed.I think this film is a fine example of underground independent film making and I hope to see much more from both the director and the cast.

Cannibalism, incest, lesbians and a load of gratuitous nudity, sounds good on paper I know but unfortunately this is without a doubt the worst film I have ever seen! How this is rated 4 stars is beyond me, I can only assume some little kids liked it because they got to see stack of naked ladies. I have given it 1 star only because there is not an option for 0 stars.It is your typical softcore/horror movie - it looks cheap, the script is atrocious and the acting is sickeningly bad. Now I quite like this type of movie, normally there's some enjoyment to be had but how wrong was I this time. I think the main problem was that it was 2 hours long and the story, even if it had been extremely well written, would struggle to fill 70 minutes.Basically the film meanders boringly along and every time it looks like there might be some kind of suspense the moment goes on far too long and the writing is so stupid that these moments become just as boring as the rest of the movie.If you're reading this thinking of watching this movie, don't, just get a mate to slam your head in a car door for a couple of hours - you'll have infinitely more enjoyment. If you are reading this because you were somehow involved in making this film just sell your gear and please, never make another movie.
