These Girls Eat Men
SCTV regulars Eugene Levy and Andrea Martin star in this Canadian horror spoof as a couple on a romantic holiday who settle into a quaint little bed–and–breakfast run by a trio of flesh–eating ladies who fancy them for tomorrows menu.
Released in 1973 and directed by a then–largely unknown Ivan Reitman, Cannibal Girls quickly acquired a reputation as the B–movie concoction of the 1970s. Canadian audiences had never before experienced such a rich blend of camp, gore, and comedy. On top of the films overt B–movie presentation, the theater–going public was also introduced to the warning bell experience: just prior to a scene of particular malice, the easily upset viewers would be warned by the sound of a bell, at which point they could shut their eyes.
