Wild Beasts ( 1983 )
dir: Franco E Prosperi
Cast:
Lorraine De Selle
John Aldrich
Ugo Bologna
Animals escape from the zoo and go on the rampage in a unnamed european city ( actually Frankfurt ) after drinking contaminated water. We see people attacked by rats, a woman having her head crushed by an elephant, a cheetah vs Volkswagen chase, schoolteachers eaten by polar bears and much more.
Wild Beasts is a fun film for the most part, the animal attacks are qiute good and there is plenty of gore plus a capatin Manwaring lookalike in Ugo Bologna. . The only problem is that the film contains some nasty cruelty to animals ( hardly surprising considering who was behind the camera ) including rats being set on fire with some being stamped to death and poor defenseless cows and pigs being attacked by tigers ( reasons it will never get an uncut uk release ). If you ignore these scenes you will find the film fun on a trash level plus it stars Lorraine De Selle which is more than enough reccomendation.

This is still one I need to see - sounds like a must watch once I've rounded-up enough beer supplies! Congrats on the blog!

Thanks. It is a fun film, sadly the version i have was fullscreen with non removable dutch subs. Im really suprised it has never been released on dvd.Posted 13th April 2009 at 03:08 PM by Pete -
This is one I still need to check out too! If only for the Cheetah car chase! I'm shocked that it hasn't recieved a DVD release from some small European company yet either!! After the success BU had with the Mondo films a few years back. Maybe its swamped in legal issues?Posted 23rd April 2009 at 11:59 AM by Philleh
