Is it weird that the Emanuelle film that, so far, is the most racially insensitive is the one that has given me a much more invested interest in the rest of the film series? Joe D’Amato’s sensibilities around the exploitation clearly make him more suited to horror even if the sex in Last Cannibals is focused more on the sensual rather than the outright pornographic. I believe that this decision is what makes the gore more effective, really being a standout star in this film, where the simplistic story does ground the film more easily compared to previous works of D’Amato’s within this film series. The decisions to portray sex as sensual and erotic rather than pornographic and horrific as in prior instalments reframe the human body as more self-sacred in a sense, allowing for the mutilation of such to feel more visceral.

Emanuelle goes into the Amazon for a story only to find herself and her group being hunted by a lost tribe. Oh and of course the make time for some sexy times too. Emanuelle and the last cannibals mixes the sexploitation with the cannibalism genre of the 70s. It's an entertaining Emanuelle movie and Laura Gemser is still great as Emanuelle.
The story is entertaining enough. I have seen Emanuelle in Bangkok before and if I watch these I prefer the travelogue ones. They are more fun and have more charm. The story of last cannibals has its moments especially when they start being hunted one by one and how they escape.
The best characters here are Emanuelle and Mark. They have chemistry and Emanuelle moments with Isabelle was sweet too. The non cannibal villians are a hunter and his wife looking for diamonds. They were entertaining enough but could have been better. Some characters have definitely not aged well though. The cannibals are just native cannibals which are threats and they explain why in detail but they are not the most interesting.
It's an Emanuelle movie so of course the question arises. How was the sex scenes ? They were good. Emanuelle doesn't have such an severe allergy to clothes in this one and yeah it's the Amazon do it makes sense. It does have less scenes later when things start to get more cannibal horrorish. Which was good because they could have been distracting then.
It's directed by Joe D'Amato. His collaboration with Laura Gemser movies have always had a charm to them. They are shot well especially the Amazon. So the last cannibals still has the charm.
Emanuelle and last cannibals is an entertaining time. It's not a great movie but Emanuelle is still a good character and her adventure with the cannibals was cool. I do think Isabelle scene with the cannibals was unnecessary though.
