![]() ![]() And there's nothing wrong with feeding that particular appetite with those kinds of gore-fests.īut the gourmet cannibal film is for a connoisseur, a person with a discerning palate and who prefers items that are exotic and of high quality. "Cannibal Holocaust," "Motel Hell," etc.) is something suited for a gourmand, a ravenous and greedy eater, prone to excess, but not too discriminating in what he eats. Almost three years ago I saw Stuart Gordon's play "Taste" (inspired by the infamous Armin Meiwes case about a German man who placed an online ad seeking a willing victim to be killed and eaten) and was inspired to create a list of what I called gourmet cannibal films for Showbiz Junkies, a site I contribute "10 best lists" to.įor that list I used French terms to make the distinction between the films I wanted to talk about and the run of the mill cannibal film.
