If you've recently made your way through Nucleus Films' mammoth and rather wonderful Video Nasties: The Definitive Guide (a late review is coming very soon), you'll have noticed how often the word 'Cannibal' turned up in the title of films on both the DPP's hit list, largely because of the still notorious Cannibal Holocaust. One that was mysteriously absent from the list was Cannibal Girls, which was directed in 1973 by none other than Ivan Reitman, the man behind Ghost Busters, Legal Eagles and Kindergarten Cop.

In the isolated town of Farnhamville the locals still talk of the legend of Anthea, Clarissa and Leona, three stunningly beautiful girls, who seduced men, lured them to their grisly deaths, and then ritualistically consumed their flesh in a strange rite to keep themselves young and beautiful forever. For Cliff (Eugene Levy from the American Pie series) and Gloria (My Big Fat Greek Wedding), a young couple on a travelling holiday, this legend is about to become a sickening reality, for the legendary local man-eaters are about to add something new to the menu...

Never before available on UK DVD, Cannibal Girls is coming to the format on Monday 14th February as an uncut Collector's Edition from Nucleus Films featuring a restored and remastered print and the following extra features:
