Trivia
Umberto Lenzi was heavily influenced by the American western A Man Called Horse (1970) when making this film. The plots of the two films are nearly identical, and the English title for this film, "Man from Deep River", is even supposed to echo the title "A Man Called Horse".

Ruggero Deodato's film Jungle Holocaust (1977) was originally conceived as a sequel to Sacrifice! (1972), with Umberto Lenzi attached to direct. The project fell through when the producers refused to accept Lenzi's demands for higher payment. Deodato was eventually hired, and the project became a stand-alone film.

The film is considered to be the first "cannibal film", a subgenre of European exploitation films that was prevalent in Grindhouse cinema in the late seventies and early eighties.

Q
What are the differences between the British BBFC 18 Version and the Uncensored Version?
A
Umberto Lenzi's Mondo Cannibale (1972) was the movie that laid the foundation for the infamous cannibal genre which reached its climax in the late 1970s and early 1980s and is still controversial among movie fans. The film was released uncut in the UK on VHS by Derann, but was put on the Video Nasties list and remained there until 1985. The movie had to be cut by 3,75 minutes for the DVD release in 2003 because of the animal snuff scenes. It is unclear why one of these scenes (a goat's throat is cut with a log of blood to be seen) was not affected by this. The 2007 reissue is cut identically. A detailed comparison between both versions with pictures can be found here.
