Student Bodies
Why this pick
A deadpan spoof that treats slasher clichés as material for relentlessly silly jokes, matching Cannibal Women’s broad, knowingly low-budget comic sensibility.

Flesh Gordon
Why this pick
This raunchy sci-fi send-up shares the same affectionate exploitation-movie absurdity, packed with intentionally tasteless gags and cheerful bargain-basement adventure.
03
The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra
Why this pick
Its deliberately wooden performances, faux-retro effects, and affectionate B-movie dialogue echo the pleasure of Cannibal Women’s knowingly corny genre pastiche.
04
The Kentucky Fried Movie
Why this pick
Its anarchic sketch comedy and willingness to parody anything—including sleazy adventure and fake trailers—fit the same shameless, irreverent midnight-movie mood.
05
Dr. Caligari
Why this pick
For the same era’s gleefully transgressive cult attitude, this surreal sex-and-horror satire pushes artificial sets, cartoonish performances, and deliberate bad taste even further.

01 / THE STORY
A little about the film.
The U.S. government, eager to protect the nation's avacado supplies, recruits feminist professor Margo Hunt to make contact with the Piranha Women, an all-female tribe who believe men are only good as a source of food. Accompanying Dr. Hunt on her trip are Jim, a guide of questionable competence, and Bunny, a student of unquestionable incompetence.
