Shame the Shriek Show disc is cut though.
I'm also a great fan of Beyond The Darkness and Emanuelle and The Last Cannibals as well.

I thought he was seriously underrated as a director tbh.

What's cut from the Shriek Show DVD of Anthropophagus?

I always assumed it was uncut.

I know the UK & US DVD editions under the title THE GRIM REAPER are cut.

I saw a few of the 11 Days 11 Nights films when i was in my teens.

I loved Jessica Moore.

I've not seen any of the 11 DAY'S..films (did have a few on dvd though). Jessica Moore is also in THE MURDER SECRET (her shower scene was used in CAT IN THE BRAIN), which I have seen, and she is pretty hot. Great breasts.

I'm not sure tbh, but some previous posts in this thread said it was incomplete.
Hmm.. i thought it looked uncut as well.

Certainly wouldn't want a longer version.

[Crimson Blade]

I often wondered if they ever filmed a longer version of the foetus eating scene, because even in the uncut version it still seems a bit abrupt tbh.

[Pete]

I doubt it, if they did we probably would have heard about it ages ago.

I have seen some gore that wasn't in the Shriek Show version of Anthropophagus.It was included in a trailer for the film I seem to recall.It was during the scene where the blind girl has her head pulled through the roof by Eastman's cannibal character.In the scene on the trailer you see all the skin being stripped off the girl's face as her head is pulled up through the jagged tiles.This isn't in the Shriek Show version.I don't know whether it made it into any other version of the film.
