aka Apocalypse Domani. Invasion of the Flesh Hunters."I had this urge to bite her."
Its 1980 and Norman Hooper (John Saxon) is still living with the trauma of Vietnam, especially when he led a rescue of some American POW's. When found they had resorted to cannibalism, and one then bit Norman. Then one of the rescued vets (Giovanni Lombardo Radice) goes on a rampage and chows down on a woman's neck, before killing a couple of people. What no one realises at the time is that his bite contains a contagious virus that turns people into cannibals, and soon Norman is joining his mate in supplementing his diet with raw meat.
Marcheriti tries to cash in on two popular genre's at the time in one, the Vietnam based drama, and the cannibal flick. A promising mix that fails to make good on its promise. Italian, Cannibal, Antonio Margheriti,
