    WHY?
    When I watch a film like this, I always think of how many people, how much work, how much money has been spent to make it. Then I ask the question, why? Why did anyone think this film was necessary? That this story needed to be told? Why? What does this film add to the culture? What does it say about anything new? In short: WHY? When the film was made and the filmmakers walked out of the screening room, did they feel they had it? How did it go? That we had now told the most important thoughts and feelings of our lives, shown the most important moods and human connections? Or did they realise that, they had created a completely unnecessary, deadly boring, trite thing, that may have once been important to one of them, but by the time it was finished had become invalid, repetitive, silly? This film was embarrassing for me. It's like when someone thinks they are very important, their feelings, their thoughts, and they put themselves forward everywhere because they don't realise that they are clichéd, uninteresting and nobody cares. I felt secondary shame by the end of the film.

    Interview with the Cannibal
    Other reviews will try to tell you about how this film is about cannibals. It isn't, it is another entry in the ever-changing vampire sub-genre of horror films.

    The movie revolts around the idea of solitude in a world that seems to the protagonist as cruel, horrifying and scary as she outwardly seem to be. This film is a pure road movie where you will meet some unusual characters.

    The Cannibals share more few traits with Rice's bloodsuckers and, interestingly, with the immortals in Highlander (1982) too than with aborigine Cannibals from a lost tribe in the Amazon.

    I hope you don't read any synopsis or reviews If you're going to watch this film. I feel it'd ruin the experience of watching it for you.

    Enjoy this film and open your mind on this journey. It'll be so worth it!
