Our first episode! Here we will give you a brief introduction to who we are and why we've chosen such an odd sub-genre of media to obsess over. Our main subject though is Cannibal Holocaust, which is not only the first use of the found footage technique in cinema, but also one of the most controversial movies ever made.
