Sinopsis(1)
Un grupo de amigos pasa las vacaciones navegando por las islas griegas y acaba desembarcando en Gomia, una pequeña isla paradisiaca. Al tomar tierra, descubren que la isla está prácticamente vacía y que sus habitantes han desaparecido sin dejar rastro. Una temible criatura con sed de sangre acecha la isla y quiere acabar con los recién llegados. (Filmin)
(más)Reseñas (5)
Una película de suspense que destaca por su novedosa ubicación en una remota isla griega, una banda sonora muy atmosférica, un asesino terrorífico y uno o dos asquerosos momentos que la han convertido en un clásico del género. Cine basura de terror a la italiana, con agallas y un rostro irresistiblemente distintivo.

Nothing happens for a long, long time in the beginning, and even after the cannibal first appears, it's hard to talk about anything shocking, or at least suspenseful. It’s just a borefest, and the awful keyboard claps do get on your nerves. In the last twenty minutes D’Amato kicks things up a bit, there are two "appetizing" scenes, and the "dessert" with a human fetus is really very creepy. Oh, by the way, George Eastman, the cannibal is really handsome. I'm surprised I've never seen him on a teen-mag poster, I'm sure there would be a spot on the wall of a lovelorn fifteen year old's room :)

It was watchable, yeah, but I would have liked a bit more action and gore. Those couple of scenes are really good, but they are too few and the first half of the film feels quite empty. What’s great is the atmosphere full of uncertainty and fear about the things to come, but the music score is annoying, like in most Italian horror.

Awful horror garbage recommended as a manual by seven out of ten cannibals and zero out of ten filmmakers. I can accept the stupid music, but the constantly stagnant events and the absence of any memorable scenes (perhaps with the exception of the very last one) are marked. Compared to this, the degenerate Cannibal Holocaust is a piece of intellectual filmmaking.

The moment when the murderer appears on the scene and we see him for the first time is really well done, and horror falls upon the viewer, which is associated with this revelation. Literally like the birth of a beast, which also immediately shows off. The film doesn't overdo it unnecessarily, doesn't explain unnecessarily, and it won me over with that. It's not a brilliant horror, but from an Italian production, it is definitely something worth paying attention to. It may look ordinary, but you can feel that horror was truly the primary focus. Even the gore is not as ubiquitous as one might expect, but it is chosen in the right measure.
