Emanuelle and the Last Cannibals is my second Joe D'Amato film after The Arena, witch was a big disappointment, so my expectations wasn't very high. But it was a pleasant surprise, I found it very entertaining. But it wasn't like that the story was good or anything, because the story is not very original and it wasn't any good either. Well, we could call it an average story, at least it isn't any worse than a regular Hollywood plot. Anyway this reporter Emanuelle, played by the beautify Laura Gemser witness a gruesome cannibalistic slaying at a New York City hospital. She apparently wants to learn about such behavior firsthand and journeys down the Amazon with a research team to find the tribe in question.
Laura Gemser plays Emanuelle whit big passion and do a pretty good job. The direction isn't exactly world class but, D'Amato do fairly good job too. The horror in this move isn't very scary, but it's a bit frightening whit cannibals thou, I can admit that, but for mostly is it amusing. Emanuelle and the Last Cannibals isn't exactly a comedy either but most people will think of it that way, at least I did and I liked it very much, so much that I'm going to see more from D'Amato and the Black Emanuelle series.
I would recommend this film to people who like trash- and exploitation cinema.
I give this a nice 7 out of 10.
