Primitives (DVD)

Four years before they rocked Asia with SATAN'S SLAVE, director Sisworo Gautama Putra, screenwriter Imam Tantowi and producer Gope T. Samtani made their collaborative debut with Indonesia's first - and still only - Italian-style cannibal shocker. When three naïve anthropology students go in search of a lost primitive tribe, they'll instead discover a nightmare of bloody rituals, depraved torture, jaw-dropping music cues and flesh-chomping brutality. Indonesian martial arts legend Barry Prima (THE WARRIOR) stars in this "peculiarly local, sometimes psychedelic and virtually unseen" (Mondo Digital) chunk of graphic jungle carnage - released in the UK as SAVAGE TERROR and classified as a Section 3 'Video Nasty' - now scanned in HD from the Jakarta vault negative for the first time ever
