Plot: Finally available in America, Spanish director De La Iglesia's (HIDDEN PLEASURES) 1971 film is a shocking study of human cruelty and man's capacity for violence during the last years of Franco's fascist dictatorship. Slaughterhouse worker Marcos (Parra) acquires a taste for blood after he accidentally kills a man during an altercation. Flowing with an insuppressible rage, the once-sane man succumbs to his most depraved passions, eventually indulging in cannibalism to dispose of his victim's bodies. Not for the squeamish!

 "Cannibal Man" is a gory, remarkable and uncompromising movie, straight outta the sleazy seventies. But despite its exploitation value, it manages to be intelligent as well, both a parable on how one bad moral decision can lead to a string of others and a character study of a man slowly going insane.-- (eSplatter.com)
