1978 Italy video nasty by Sergio Martino just released on UK Blu-ray

The Slave of the Cannibal God is a 1978 Italy horror adventure by Sergio Martino. Starring Ursula Andress and Stacy Keach and Claudio Cassinelli.
All UK releases have been cut for animal cruelty. The film was banned as a video nasty
in 1983. There is an uncut extended version released in the US. This Extended Version was passed 18 for 2018 UK video but was still cut for animal cruelty. Summary Notes Susan
Stevenson and her brother Arthur get off a plane in Papua New Guinea, looking for her missing husband. They team up with, Dr. Edward Foster. The three head into the jungle, get in more than a few fights amongst themselves, and view lots of gratuitous
animal cruelty, notable an iguana getting eviscerated. UK: The Extended Version was passed 18 for strong violence, gore, sex after 2:01s of BBFC compulsory cuts for:
The BBFC commented in the annual report covering 2017: Required cuts to remove sight of real animal cruelty that appeared to be orchestrated and directed for the purposes of the film (a crocodile attacking other
animals and a fight between a snake and a bird)
Promotional Material Also known as 'The Mountain Of The Cannibal God'. Sergio Martino (the director of
All The Colours Of The Dark, The Strange Vice of Mrs Wardh, Torso ) invites you on the trip of a lifetime to The Mountain of The Cannibal God - for tropical sun, wildlife and... flesh munching natives!
Ursula Andress (voted the Top Bond Girl of all time in Dr No - The Nurse) here stars as 'THE SLAVE OF THE CANNIBAL GOD'. The film follows her as she travels to the New Guinea jungle in search of her scientist husband
who's vanished in the untamed Green Inferno. Soon, giant spiders, killer crocodiles and deadly giant snakes bare their teeth as her expedition, led by cult-favourite Stacy Keach , journeys towards the sacred mountain of
the Cannibal God! There a flesh-eating tribe will enslave her in an eruption of frenzied orgiastic climax... Banned as a 'Video Nasty', Shameless now reinstates the original dramatic gore and the extended - and here complete - explicit scenes to
serve up this 2K-sharp restoration of this ferocious unflinching exploitation treat, to be savoured in all its blood-soaked glory! Special Features:
- 2K Restored and Regraded
- Sergio Martino interview on the Making of "Slave of the Cannibal God"
- Sergio Martino interview on Animal
Cruelty
- Theatrical Trailer
- Alternative Italian Credits
