Cannibal Holocaust Page #3

Synopsis: With the intention to venture into the unexplored areas in the deep jungle of the Amazon rainforest at the border between Brazil and Peru, in 1979, a film crew composed of four young Americans attempted to make a documentary about the never seen before indigenous cannibalistic tribes. However, it's already been two months since anyone last heard from the crew, so without further delay, the noted anthropologist Professor Harold Monroe and his rescue team of the seasoned guide Chaco Losojos and his assistant, embarked on a mission to locate them in the depths of the Green Inferno. Following the Yakumos, a tribe that no white has ever seen before, soon enough, the Professor's rescue party will encounter the elusive Yanomamos or Tree People and the fearsome Shamataris or the Swamp People. Eventually, as more evidence is found concerning the fate of the film crew, the Professor will try to recover the raw footage that was paid in blood, and return it to New York to the executives of the Pan

Come on Miguel.

F*** good luck!

Come on boy...

We may be in trouble...

Good... you've raised deductive reasoning to an art.

Instinct...

Something says your friends have made quite a mess of things.

Wait!

If Miguel pulls this off, I swear

I'll buy him a bottle of whiskey.

This is supposed to demonstrate their good intentions.

There, they're going to show themselves now.

Where the hell are you going?

They're going to lead you into an ambush.

No, this is a sign of a good professor.

You could a fooled me...

They just want to show us they are brave warriors.

They want us to follow them to the village.

Follow them?

Yea, to return the prisoner and to talk.

Listen, I do not know about this.

I think they want us for dinner tonight.

Chaco...

Pretend you've seen nothing.

OK.

Friends shot him.

Let's hope he doesn't die from wound...

Get busy, Miguel!

You can breathe easy...

It's alright now, Professor.

Kimnamma...

Cheers, Professor...

You now have the honor of drinking Hisimo.

Yes.

The group we are looking for...

is probably headed for the center of the jungle.

or the center of the Matos.

No white man has ever seen before.

This area is under the domination

of two cannibal tribes.

They are so fierce, they are feared

by all of the tribes in the area.

Including the tough courageous warriors

of the Yacumo Tribe.

These are the two super powers

of the Green Inferno.

Perpetually at war with each other.

The Yanomano or Tree People.

and Shamatari, the Swamp People.

Each considers the other fair game.

Hunted...

Then eaten.

This will keep you high and dry.

No, thanks.

Yacumo blame the Alan Yates' crew

...for the great calamity

exactly what happened remains a mystery.

Only know the four whites...

Hey! Shut that up!

God, we're in the middle of a hunt.

Tree people or both?

Both hunting each other...

Lets get going.

Despite the fact that our intervention

saved them from the Shamatari

The tree people, although they welcomed

us into their territory

continue to behave strangely towards us.

With a mixture of fear and distrust.

Nevertheless we've been permitted

to observe the execution of one of the warriors.

Death by mutilation.

Criminal thwarted by the chief.

Criminal for the way he was destroyed.

Must have done something horrible

to incur the wrath of his own people.

It is not clear whether it was to pay

a debt of honor towards us...

or only to demonstrate

how they dispense justice?

Careful, they're referring to us...

We weren't able to get anything

out of the Yanomamo.

Except for the wristwatch they gave us.

as a token of the gratitude to an ally

An ally they continue to fear and mistrust.
