Last Cannibal World

Robert Harper is an oil prospector whose small plane goes down in the jungle after a stop at a deserted airstrip. He and his companion Rolf survive the crash, but their search for help brings them into contact with a cannibal tribe, which kills most of the group and takes Harper prisoner. Held in the remote forest, he must survive among people whose ways have gone unchanged for thousands of years and eventually escape, find his missing friend and reach the aircraft so he can get home.

The film was directed by Ruggero Deodato and released in 1977, the second of six features listed for him, arriving between Waves of Lust in 1975 and Cannibal Holocaust in 1980. Massimo Foschi plays Harper, with Ivan Rassimov as Rolf, Me Me Lai as Pulan, and Sheik Razak Shikur, Judy Rosly and Suleiman among the supporting cast. The screenplay was written by Renzo Genta, Gianfranco Clerici and Tito Carpi, and Giorgio Carlo Rossi produced for the Italian company Erre Cinematograsica S.r.l. The film runs 93 minutes and belongs to the adventure and horror genres.
