Reviews:
“Cannibal Mukbang certainly indulges in its cannibalist exoticism and, quite rightly too, has riotous good fun with it […] There’s nothing particularly surprising about the events that unfold, with the premise sticking to the path it sets down pretty early on, but the bittersweet ending is a satisfying wrap-up for two souls trying to find light amidst a dark, impossible love.” ★★★★ Horror DNA
” …the horror elements make themselves known, as viewers get to know more about Ash while the gruesome effects effectively sell the central conceit. What truly fascinates are how these grisly moments are well-balanced alongside the great comedic timing and heartfelt romance, ensuring that the film’s beating heart is never forgotten. If there were any issues, it would regard certain machinations which feel rushed in setting up the third-act…” ★★★★ The Reviewing Rodders
“Taking this on its title alone, you could be wondering how quickly it will head down the Troma route. As a genuine fan of many flicks from that particular filmic stable, I’m not of the opinion that choosing that kind of style is a bad thing, but Cannibal Mukbang’s anarchic moments come from a vastly different, far more intriguing place. The shocks and the laughs are earned and the emotional stakes possess an uncommon authenticity, bolstered by the chemistry between the two leads.” Warped Perspective
