Gruesome Magazine is partnering with the WICKED HORROR TV CHANNEL (https://wickedhorrortv.com/) which now includes video episodes of Decades of Horror 1980s and is available on Roku, AppleTV, Amazon FireTV, AndroidTV, and its online website across all OTT platforms, as well as mobile, tablet, and desktop.

Synopsis: Three friends set out to disprove cannibalism on a trip to the Amazonian jungle, where they meet two men trying to escape a vicious cannibal tribe.

First, Decades of Horror 1980s covered Ruggero Deodato’s Cannibal Holocaust (1980) in episode 176. Now comes Umberto Lenzi’s Cannibal Ferox (1981)! The 31 countries that initially banned the film can’t all be wrong. It even comes with its very own pre-movie warning, and The Last Drive-In host, Joe Bob Briggs, gave it a “98 on the vomit meter.” By the way, “ferox” is Latin for cruel or ferocious. They’re not lying. But what will the Grue Crew think of this cannibal exploitation horror film? You can bet they’ll have plenty to say. They also play catchup on Grue Believer feedback. Enjoy their talkabout!

At the time of this writing, Cannibal Ferox (1981) is available to stream from Tubi, Kanopy, and AMC+. It is also available on physical media as a deluxe 3-disc set (2 Blu-ray + CD soundtrack) from Grindhouse Releasing. 

Every two weeks, Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror 1980s podcast will cover another horror film from the 1980s. The next episode’s film, chosen by Crystal, will be The Gate (1981). Kids, absent parents, a mysterious hole in the backyard, a demon horde, stop-motion animation, forced perspective, and… well, let’s just say, shenanigans ensue!

Please let them know how they’re doing! They want to hear from you – the coolest, grooviest fans – so leave them a message or comment on the Gruesome Magazine Youtube channel, on the Gruesome Magazine website, or email the Decades of Horror 1980s podcast hosts at [email protected].
