averno667-513-895353 Jonas Wolcher has taken yet another step forward in his development as a film maker. Cannibal Fog is a really interesting little gem.I know that I will get beaten if I tell what inspiration I think lies behind this film. First of all I want to mention Marian Doras wonderful film Cannibal. "Du bist mein fleisch". Cannibal Fog is far from a copy of this film but you have a bit of the feeling hanging over you in combination with... Now I'll get beaten... Sergio Leones Once Upon a Time in the West. I know. It's two genres as far from each other as you can get, but the feeling, the tempo. The unavoidable journey through Linus fall guided by Malte. The film has different layers in form of the odd relation between Linus and Malte but also the controversial phenomenon of cannibalism in our modern society. I must say that Jonas have been walking on a thin line here but managed to stay on it and not fall. I can recommend this film but don't see it as only yet another action. Try to follow the dark satire and the dark humor.

thomas-stipic99 I've watched Cannibal Fog before even trying to imagine what hides behind the title, and was pleasantly surprised.Mixing my favorite genres of horror and dark comedy, the movie reveals itself to be really good done, dealing with taboo such as modern-times cannibalism in some other kind of way that we're used to watch on screens and successfully escaping well-known clichés.Even though this movie is definitely not to everyone's taste, I'd highly recommend it to every fan of genre(s) who's looking for something different, something more than just bombastic, effects overridden cheap story soaked in blood.Cannibal Fog is a movie slightly weird, in every kind not ordinary, but funny in any case.

ASouthernHorrorFan "Cannibal Fog" mixes dark satirical attitude into an otherwise disturbing subculture of human desire. The story takes from both real event inspired situations, and pure erotica-fantasy. At times "Cannibal Fog" becomes a bit confusing as the two individual stories play out in a series of scenes that transition in choppy, abrupt situations during their linear and simultaneous journeys. The scene switching does move smoothly which at first seems annoying. This doesn't change much as the movie moves on but it doesn't take too long to understand that the two main characters' story's are playing out side-by-side. The acting isn't stellar but the surreal, and very experimental theatrical nature of "Cannibal Fog" allows for sub-par acting. Most of the time this film presents as if we are the voyeur, peeping into a taboo world where the overly-sexualized persona opens up doors of food fetish and cannibal culinary prowess. Overall the film is a extreme expressionist piece that devours lust and greed in western society. There are a few shining spots in "Cannibal Fog" with the more somber, and darker introduction of Kim Sonderholm's character, Daniel Peterson. That, and the more humorous, disturbing tongue-in- cheek experience of sitophilia that plays out in a memorable dinner scene stand out in the movie. The special effects in "Cannibal Fog" are practical ones that work on screen, create enough horror element to entertain a fan of the macabre, and at times are the only truly interesting aspects of the story. The surreal, dreamlike style of story telling and bizarre soundtrack help to create an atmosphere that is just as confusing, as it is effective in creating and amplifying the more emotional components of "Cannibal Fog". In the end though, the story doesn't create any real thrills, or chills, instead playing at a near monotone level of flat, steady-as-she-goes-neutrality. "Cannibal Fog" almost ends with the same amount of enthusiasm and energy as it begins. Overall this isn't going to be a film for most horror fans, "Cannibal Fog" speaks to an audience as limited as the subculture portrayed within its dark, and disturbing subject matter. It is more on an art-house mix of exploitation/experimental character study. The ability of Wolcher to explore the darker side of human eroticism, and morbidity with such open candor shows real talent and passion for film making and story telling. Sometimes lifting the story up to a more intriguing piece of theatre, but most often than not the story gets crowded out by the constant inconsistency of the story's tone. Watch this one with an open mind, and a desire to indulge in something bizarre.

Alex Green I just watched this film and it was a awesome and interesting film. The Story about modern day cannibalism and how it would work in a urban Environment was really interesting. I really loved the relationship between Malte and Michael. It reminded me of Luke Skywalker and Obi Wan.This film is not be taken too seriously at its a dark comedy but ones you are in the right mood then you will really enjoy the 2 hours of cannibal fun.Fingers crossed that this will turn in to a trilogy.If I should say anything negative it would be that the dialog was not top notch all the time. But overall a great and un-understandable film.
