I have The Uncut 25th. Anniversary Collectors edition of Cannibal Holocaust as well as many other "contraversial" movies.
Cannibal Holocaust, as a movie, is far from "great" but, if you view it as what it actually is, a "Video Nasty" that is a contraversial, exploitive, unusually tasteless movie by nearly anyones standards, it is a valuable film to serious horror film collectors.
The history of the films production rumors, release, arrest of Director Ruggero Deodato, the continued ban of the film in various countries, and the fact that this movie, released 25 years ago, is still creating discussions (such as this one), debates, continued rumors although they have been proven false, is proof enough that this movie, although disgusting, is an important part of cinema.
