At the end of this, I'm going to use the word "Recommend". Now take that with a grain of salt, because I can't see the world at large finding Cannibal! The Musical very appealing. But I'm a fan, and recently I was surprised to find that basically everyone I know digs it, so maybe it's the right word after all.

When "South Park"'s Trey Parker turns a true story about cannibalism into a musical, it's bound to be funny. Alfred Packer (Parker, unrecognizable beyond his wide, innocent eyes) incompetently leads an 1873 expedition through the Rocky Mountains, and desperate hunger leads to chomping on some fallen comrades. The inserted songs show Parker's legitimate musical talents (long obvious to "South Park" watchers), and there are odd random elements such as a disgusting cyclops, an undersized guy who's keen to get laid and a tribe of Japanese people presented as "Indians." The film has no budget (the synthetic musical arrangements are home-studio tacky, and much of the action seems like a band of actors wandering around the same patch of snowy terrain), but Parker's wit saves the day. Predictably, the gore is too cartoonish to be truly disturbing, so tender viewers need not be afraid.

Co-creator of South Park, did an absolute crap job at directing the comedy musical, Cannibal! The Musical. This movie was nowhere near as interesting as the title would imply. It dragged for almost the whole film, I'm not even saying cut it down, just don't make it. There were exactly two moments I got kick out of, other than that I was drenched out. With the fake mustaches and stupid ending, it felt like a middle school play.

Creators of 'South Park', Trey Parker and Matt Stone give us a hilarious low budget musical masterpiece. Sometimes it seems the only reason Trey and Matt make movies or television shows are for Trey to show off his dynamic musical and singing affinity. Full of songs that will stick in your head for weeks and keep a smile on your face, this is not a movie that can be easily described to a friend, rather it has to be seen to be believed. If you appreciate the humor of Trey Parker and Matt Stone in their other ventures, this is a sure fire winner for you.
