Cannibal Soundtracks

Umberto Lenzi Cannibal Ferox soundtrack colored vinyl for sale
What is it about Italian cannibal gut-munching movies and their soundtracks? These movies are infamous in their nasty ways–pure gross-out from start to finish that has you either becoming an instant fan, car-crash fascinated, or so revolted that you can’t stand the idea of watching another second.

The Italian jungle cannibal movies are, for some of us, a bizarre artifact of the history of cinema that deserves further study. One reason why? The soundtracks.

What kind of music do you expect from a film titled Make Them Die Slowly? Or Cannibal Holocaust? In today’s filmmaking environment, metal is probably the very first thing that springs to mind–or some kind of abrasive industrial music or crossover industrial metal…you get the idea.

So when you click on the YouTube clips below to hear what Make Them Die Slowly, AKA Cannibal Ferox, has to offer, the inunitiated will not only be shocked and confused, but probably then want to see the movie to experience the full cognitive dissonance that goes with hearing THOSE soundtrack sounds combined with the images reproduced on album covers like the reissue of Cannibal Ferox on One Way Static Records, which is for sale at Turntabling while supplies last. (It should be pointed out that the version linked to here is the very limited edition Uncensored Version with all the squishy brain eating imagery some know and love.)
