Well, then consider it done now - after all, the poor fellow has been stabbed, gutted with a shotgun blast, had his bonce drilled and been messily relieved of his arm and dick among other things.
On the downside though, Mr. Radice now speaks ill of his exploitation past... and is sometimes clearly uncomfortable and embarrassed talking about some of his best movies.
SISTINAS: the animal killings range from ritual mutilation (where the filmmakers exploit allegedly traditional practices from the "tribes/cannibals") to "natural" conflicts between two spieces (where in fact the unfortunate animals have been shoved together to encourage a fight to the death) -
Cannibal Holocaust also features the abhorrent shooting of a pig by one of the stars of the film, and the shocking destruction of a helpless giant turtle.
However repulsive, these sequences do up the ante of intensity of these films and make the viewer question what other carnage they are watching "might be real"...
