cannibals

While known for westerns, Leone explored primal human nature and survival ethics in 'A Fistful of Dollars' and 'The Good, the Bad and the Ugly,' themes that underpin cannibalism narratives.

Deodato's controversial 'Cannibal Holocaust' (1970) is a foundational exploitation film that directly confronts cannibalism and indigenous cultures, sparking ongoing debates about ethics in cinema.

Roth's 'The Green Inferno' (2013) directly engages with cannibal film tropes while exploring themes of imperialism, survival, and the clash between Western and indigenous cultures.
