This chapter reviews how Ruggero Deodato's<italic>Cannibal Holocaust</italic> follows in the tradition of mondo and exotic cinema. It illustrates how <italic>Cannibal Holocaust</italic> presents the viewer with a purportedly genuine 'reality', such as unsimulated animal slaughter, actual locations, and newsreel atrocity footage. It also analyses the fictionalisation of location, native lifestyles, and historical images in <italic>Cannibal Holocaust</italic>. The chapter discusses the harrowing execution footage of <italic>Cannibal Holocaust</italic>'s 'Last Road to Hell' sequence, which shows its vast use of visual misinformation. It looks at the misappropriation of third world horror that is attributed to a perceived postcolonial European 'superiority' in which all conflicts in developing nations are viewed as indicative of an exotic sense of anarchy.
