Cannibal Holocaust (1980), as a filmic text, is inseparable from the numerous discourses and dialogues that construct its cinematic history. Inherently controversial, the film’s extreme content instigated various scandals which have irrevocably impacted its understanding within the wider film discourse. Thus the text harbours numerous meanings, personas and characteristics while maintaining a series of externally acting reference points entrenched within differing social memoires. It is therefore impossible to fully understand Cannibal Holocaust without navigating and assessing these externally circulating agendas because they perform an important role in defining the film’s cultural image.
