DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
David Cronenberg Canada

His body horror films like 'Shivers' and 'Rabid' explore flesh consumption and parasitic corruption as metaphors for disease and bodily transformation.

 Ruggero Deodato Italy

His found-footage horror 'Cannibal Holocaust' remains the most transgressive and explicit exploration of flesh-eating savagery in cinema history.
