Watch this entire film

Rabid Grannies (originally Les Mémés Cannibales) is a 1988 Belgian horror film directed by Emmanuel Kervyn.[1]

Plot[]

Two elderly sisters invite their wonderful nieces and nephews to a dinner party in celebration of the sisters' upcoming birthdays. The one nephew who is not invited is the ostracized black sheep of the family whose devil-worshipping activities have resulted in his being removed from the sisters' inheritance. The rest of the guests are merely putting in time; they're really just waiting for their aunts to kick the bucket, leaving them amply endowed via their respective inheritances. But, the nephew sends a party gift that turns the scene into a frolic of the macabre: the aunts turn cannibal and eat up all their guests!

Criticism[]

Due to its unusual subject and title and its graphic scenes of gore, 'Rabid Grannies' is one of the most infamous titles in the Troma library.[2]

Release[]

The film was not only dubbed and distributed in America on VHS and DVD by Troma Entertainment[3], it was also one of the non-American-produced films distributed by the aformentioned company.

The Troma DVD removes a lot of the gore from the feature film. These scenes are available to be seen in the bonus features.[4]
