Devil Hunter (also known as El caníbal and Sexo Caníbal) is a 1980 splatter film directed by Jesús Franco under the pseudonym "Clifford Brown" and written by Franco and Julián Esteban (under the pseudonym Julius Valery).
It is one of the infamous "Video Nasties" that was banned in the United Kingdom in the 1980s.
Release
Devil Hunter was released on 5 December 1980 in West Germany.
It was banned as a video nasty in the United Kingdom in the early 1980s.
Critical reception
Devil Hunter has been critically panned. Kurt Dahlke of DVD Talk called it a "horrible, trying piece of dreck that should have remained legendary and lost. That said, it's pretty fun stuff."[1] DVD Verdict, similarly, called the film "trash" and writing that "the storyline is threadbare and the characters are idiots (the horrid dubbing makes their dialogue endlessly entertaining) but Jess Franco does not hesitate in blasting out the nipples and bloodshed."[2]
