Yeah, I think Anthropophagous gets shit on too much, sure it's a bit dull, but I think the film has some creepy atmosphere, and George Eastman's monster is pretty great, I wonder did D'Amato and Eastman have Gary Sherman's subterranean horror Death Line in mind during the production of the film - not only does George Eastman's monster share a certain resemblance to the cannibal in Death Line, there's a sequence in Anthropophagous, set in a catacomb littered with chewed up, rotting corpses, which looks like it was inspired by the marvellous tracking shot inside the cannibal's lair in the Sherman film...
