I don't think Last Cannibal World has any chance whatsoever of getting passed the BBFC today - or ever! There's no way they're going to pass the crocodile slaughter. This scene was cut for the X rating in the late 70's, it was cut again when the film was submitted for DVD 10 years ago. Unlike the turtle slaughter in Holocaust they won't be able to claim that it was a quick kill - simply because it wasn't. The crocodile was brutally beaten and skinned whilst it was very much alive. So you can forget seeing this. The other scene cut for DVD last time was the rape. This scene would otherwise have passed the BBFC aside from the fact that it was clearly endorsing the rape myth. Unless the BBFC's view on this scene change on its next submission then the scene once again will be cut.
Emanuelle and the Last Cannibals also contains clear female genital mutilation. Can't see the BBFC passing it.
