Am I alone in not seeing the point of a remake of Cannibal Holocaust?

If the animal footage is stock footage culled from nature/wildlife documentaries (as I wrongly thought the snake/monkey scene in Mountain was) then so be it. I don't have a problem with this being in the film (though I still blanch a bit). When it's done for the movie itself (a la Holocaust) then I find it repellent and somewhat pointless too.

To their credit Vipco steered most of the zombie films - bar House By The Cemetery - through the BBFC uncut, and that was only cut due to a then-recent prosecution. They also got The Bogey Man through intact which I always thought was one of the best and most original of the video nasties.
