• Banned in China: Exaggerated or not, it was/is definitely banned in at least some places, including the UK during the "video nasties" hysteria of the 1980's.

  • Argentina: The Last Cannibals
  • Denmark: Hunted by Cannibals
  • Germany: The Revenge of the Cannibals
  • Greece: Slow Death
  • Mexico: Cannibal Horror
  • Netherlands: The Cannibals Are Attacking!

• Creator Backlash: Giovanni Lombardo Radice made no secret of the fact that he hated making the film and wanted absolutely nothing to do with it afterwards.
• The Foreign Subtitle:
  • Poland: Cannibal Ferox: Let Them Die Slowly
• Referenced by...: Appears on a Times Square marquee in the "Damntown" story, under the title Make Them Die Slowly and top-billed with Demonoid (1980), in the graphic novel Before Watchmen: Rorschach #1, released by DC Comics on October 1, 2012 and included in the Before Watchmen: Comedian/Rorschach collection.
• Wag the Director: Giovanni Lombardo Radice refused to kill the animals himself, meaning Umberto Lenzi had to hire a stuntman to do the killings. When Lenzi told Radice that Robert De Niro would have done the animal killings, Radice replied, "De Niro would have kicked your ass all the way back to Rome!"
• Translation Matchmaking: Became a sequel to The Man from Deep River in Australia.
