Starring Massimo Foschi, Me Me Lai and Ivan Rassimov, the plot follows a man trying to escape from a jungle island inhabited by a cannibal tribe.

Robert spends the next several days trapped in a small cave, abused by the natives and fed rotting offal.

He continues to observe the natives living their daily life, which includes eviscerating, cooking, and eating a large crocodile.

The two wander through the jungle until Pulan tries escaping, after Robert becomes distracted pulling leeches off of his body while bathing in a lake.

The film was censored upon its initial theatrical release in the United Kingdom, with nearly four minutes of cuts, mainly directed to scenes of animal cruelty.

[3] In Australia, the film was initially banned before being released on VHS with heavy cuts to remove "indecent violence"[4] Mike Long from DVD Talk gave the film two out of five stars, writing, "The problem with Jungle Holocaust is that beyond its shock value, it really doesn't offer anything else to the viewer."

In his review, Long criticized the film for its lack of story, character development, and unconvincing gore effects.
