Cannibal Holocaust

Man is un???

Nothing is impossible for him.

What seemed to be a unthinkable undertaking yesterday

are history today.

The conquest of the moon for example

Who talks about it anymore

Today we are already on the threshold of conquering are galaxy.

and in the not to distant tomorrow

Will be considering the conquest of the universe.

and yet man seems to ignore the fact that on this very planet

there are still people living in the stone age and practicing cannibalism.

..... Primitive tribes isolated in ruthless hostile enviroments

where the prevailing law is survivial of the fittest

And this jungle its inhabitaince refer too, as the Green Inferno

Is only a few hours flying time from New York City

was it to remind us that four brave Americans

went there to make a documentry on life in the jungle

was it also to remind us for instance

that before venturing into space.

We should become more aquanted with the planet that we live on.

Four young and fearless Americans children of the space age.

Armed with cameras, microphones, and curiosity.

Alan Yates, director famous for his documentry's on

Vietnam and Africa.

Faye Daniels, his girlfriend and script girl.

and there two cameramen, Jack Anders and Mark Tomaso

Four youngsters never came back.

But let's have a look at them

at the beginning of there incredible adventure.

Here at the border between Brazil and Peru.

They are about to board a plane to take them to the Rio Ocoro.

A last outpost from which they will continue on foot.

Deep into the Amazon Jungle.

Into the area known as the Green Inferno.

Hey, are you really not scared?

Not at all...I've been in plenty of dangerous places with them.

What about you, Alan?

Well there's one thing scares me.

and that's marriage..

He'd take me to the North Pole to put it off...

I'd say you succeeded this time too.

And this last time.

Yes, provided that to come back in one piece.

Alright, alright...Let's go.

Well you four are certainly the first to embark on such an adventure.

There was a expedition in 59 and another in 67

And neither of them came back.

Yeh, that was Smith and a bunch of Frenchman.

Yeh, Frenchman, they were amateurs a bunch of jerks.

They never succeded in doing anything.

For us the difficult doesn't exist.

The impossible just takes a little more time.

We have Felipe our guide.

All right, gentlemen, are you ready?

Those are the last pictures we have of them.

Two months have passed since they were last heard from.

Are you still alive?

And if you so where are they?

These are the questions that the rescue team sponsored by

New York University and the Pan American Broadcasting System.

...hope to be able to answer.

Thank you for accepting Professor Monroe. Good luck

Professor Harold Monroe, NYU's noted anthropologist.

Has taken part in various expiditions exploring primitive cultures.

But this will be his first journey into Amazonea

Here you are Lieutenant ...

Well Professor Monroe...Do you think you can turn that

Thanks... All I can say is that your...

Anthropologists and missionaries, are made out of special stuff.

If hell holes like this didn't exist

I'm sure you would invent one.

Where as I'd give both my ???

well let's say I'd give anything to be somewhere else.

Look, Lieutenant.

I'll be as little trouble as possible, it's just...

I'm sure you got enough problems of your own.

I'll have to be honest with you...

No, no thanks...

I need your help in organizing your expedition.

How can I refuse.

You have been recommended by everybody.

Only a sure guarantee that you'll

still be breathing when you return

Look, I know this is not going to be a picnic, believe me.

This is not my first trip into bush.

A skunk must of pissed that...

Lieutenant ...

This lighter belonged to Faye Daniels'

Come with me, Professor. I'll introduce you to your guide

He's the best there is, if you can get along with him

Chaco Hey! This professor of Monroe.

Hello ... Nice to meet you. Lieutenant here was telling me...

What a excellent guide you are.

You gonna take all of this with you in the jungle?

Yes, well forget it. We gonna need some weapons...

some amunition plus some medicine

that's all we need

I already told your friends.

The more you carry, the quiker you get tired...

the sooner you die.

Alright,alright...

All I wanna know Mr. Chaco is

do we have a chance of finding them alive?

Who's to say?

The only thing I know, is were gonna risk our lives to

save those fuckers...Let's go

Great warriors, these Yacumos!

They're afraid of know one except the Tree People.

No white man has ever seen them

Or the ones who have, never lived to tell.

Did you see this?

The sacred scar of Ateri

That's what is is. a son of a shaman.

and he's been concicrated to the spirit of the jaguar

Which also explains what they were doing this far from home.

What do you mean?

They were caught, yet they are not really cannibals.

To chase evil spirits outta the jungle

White men's spirits

Come on, Professor ...

Quit worrying Yacumo!

You can't aford to waist your strength helping that savage.

He'll out live all of us!

Can you make it?

will have to wade across.

But there's no piranhas here.

Come on!

Come on...come on...

There may not be any Piranhas

but there is always a few hungry cavemen around.

Leeches!

Leave that shit alone.

He can't do it by himself and there's three of us here..

Why can't we help him? Don't try this again Proffessor.

Here, we do as I say, and this bastard...

needs to know who is the strongest.

Chaco justified, Senior. This guy is completely full of hate.

Soon as you don't look, this guy will slit your throat.

They went this way. Yacumo eat here A pit dug for.

And what does this mean?

We're following the same trail, right? Right.

Hey, Professor!

I recognize these teeth.

This is Felipe Ocana.

He knew the jungle as well as I do.

That makes me feel terrific.

I wonder what was his mistake?

See that? We're near his village, he can already smell his home.

Mira!

Here comes dinner...

Hey. Mira!

A vole!

Today we eat meat, Ok?

This is Miguel ... hurry up I'm hungry

It's dying that's for sure...

Hey, Chaco, what in the hell are you doing?

it's for our Yacumo friend.

A little bit of this stuff

and he'll forget all about trying to run away tonight.

Atalaka, catra!

This will make you very happy, just wait and see.

Drug addicts in the jungle.

hey, give him some of this.

A little muskrat stomach.

He'll love it.

You like that? Eat it it's all yours, go on stuff yourself.

What the hell is that?

I swear, that looks like a ritualistic punishment for adultery. That's what it is.

Just sit back and enjoy the show, because afterwards he's gonna take us to the village.

Don't be a fool!

Come on, Professor!

That punishment is considered a divine comandment.

If he had not killed her. The tribe would have killed him.

Here he comes!

Follow him!

it's know masterpiece but, it'll do.

Please let me try Chaco, please let me try...

Ok, is it possible that this way that don't know..

How many of us there are until we talk with them?

Miquel not learn fast?

Terrific, just terrific!

They're coming ..

Where? I do not see a thing

Don't worry, they are there ..

I know they are there, but Where?! I do not see anything.

Come on, let's send out our ambassador.

Andale, Miquel.

Mierda una Buena Suerte!

Andale, muchacho ...

We 'may be in trouble ....

Good you've raised deductive reasoning to an art.

Instinct ...

Something says your friends have made quite a mess of things.

Wait!

If Miquel pulls this off, I swear I'll buy him a bottle of whiskey.

This is suppose to demonstrate they're good intentions.

There, their going to show themselves now.

Where the hell are you going?

They're going to lead you into an ambush.

No, this is a sign of a good professor.
