Cannibal! The Musical is the true story of the only person convicted of cannibalism in America – Alfred Packer. The sole survivor of an ill-fated trip to the Colorado Territory, he tells his side of the harrowing tale to news reporter Polly Prye as he awaits his execution. And his story goes like this: While searching for gold and love in the Colorado Territory, he and his companions lost their way and resorted to unthinkable horrors, including toe-tapping songs! Packer and his five wacky mining buddies sing and dance their ways into your heart…and then take a bite out of it! Cannibal! The Musical is Oklahoma meets Bloodsucking Freaks. Brought to you by the Troma Team and Trey Parker – the Rogers and Hammerstein of Horror! (Troma Entertainment)

This was a flawless surprise that, considering my previous experiences with Troma, I certainly didn’t expect. It’s quite amateurishly made, but brutally funny from beginning to (almost) end. It doesn’t have much in common with classic Troma (it doesn’t have anything too nasty or vulgar), which must be the reason why I liked it. The songs are extremely catchy and some of the jokes (wisecracks, rather) almost made me fall off my seat. I have only one reservation: it could be 20 minutes or so shorter, because the ending doesn’t have any more juice. PS: What the hell is spadoinkle???
