    Upon reading on the article ''cannibalism in north korea''
    It linked me to some serial killers such as Jeffrey Dahmer
    and Andrei Chikatilo
    Nikolai Dzhumagaliev
    Issei Sagawa
    Lopez
    I mean especially the first three seem like proper nut cases
    and to think the last there are still roaming this earth
    Are people like these still out their right as we speak??
    And why do they do this stuff
    Eat humans???WTF
    I mean do they even taste good??

    Of course they are out there. There will always be people like that out there.

    As for eating humans, it can't be much different from eating animals apart from the fact you are eating another human being. I'd imagine it would taste fine (certain parts) if people were given it and not told it was a human.

    The cannibals of New Guinea called it "long pig".

    And that's when we first found out about a 100% fatal brain disease transmitted by a species eating brains of the same species.

    Mad cow disease and variant CJD were totally preventable

    Do you mean serial killers or cannibals?

    Estimates are that in the US there are roughly 300 active serial killers at any given time. Across the world there are probably a probably a few thousand, but they're pretty much impossible to track unless they stick to a very specific pattern. The vast majority of them manage to function undetected for years, if they are ever even detected at all. Not all of them are cannibals though, only a small minority.

    Cannibalism is still practiced in some cultures, and there are even rare cases of people volunteering to be cannibalised (a guy in germany was convicted a while ago for killing and eating a guy who had agreed to it in advance). It's not actually illegal in most places, people who cannabilise are usually charged with desecrating a corpse or something along those lines. Then there's all the cases of people in famines eating the dead, or in situations like the plane crash in the movie Alive. Modern eastern culture has it as pretty much the ultimate taboo, but throughout history and different cultures it really shows up quite a bit in a variety of circumstances.

    Ritualistic cannibalism in culture or in individuals (like cannibal killers) seems to be a way of trying to possess another person in the most ultimate way possible - they literally become a part of you.

    And human flesh tastes like pork apparently.

    tere was an Italian zombie movie where the cast comprised mostly of a tribe of cannibals they'd set up camp with. answers on postcard.. I doubt that tradition has died out

    Part of La Vallee was used in zombie films I think, I don't know any of them, just know the music.

    I imagine it'd be like raising a pig to eat.

    All well and good until you name the pig Clucky. Then the bastárd looks up at you with those big, beautiful eyes as you are about to bring the hammer down on the soft part at the back of the head.

    Tastes great, but when there's a name attached, it's difficult.

    I wonder, would free range humans taste different to farmed humans?

    if they existed in the past why would they not exist anymore

    If my experiences are anything to go by quite a few would taste of rotting fish.:(

    And what would be the ideal human to eat?

    Don't want them too fat, they'd be all greasy. Too lean, and there's no meat.

    MMA stars? Fair bit of heft to them, lot of muscle, not much fat content.

    The Mapuga tribe in New Guinea.

    Cannibal Holocaust I was thinking of.. an actual genre of cannibal movies from Italy was big in the seventies

    00:13:45 - He did eat a foot. - Yeah?

    00:13:49 Look, Bendix made a stew. I had no idea there was a foot in it.

    00:13:56 You eat one lousy foot, they call you a cannibal.

    00:14:01 What a world.

    00:14:03 I'll call you more than a cannibal.

    Well yes they do. I'll grant you the vast majority of killers these days are a flippant slapstick lot, but you still get these erudite stern types in remote areas

    WTF?

    Unfortunately, the lesser-known Hilarious Killers are extinct

    It was Lucio Fulci's "Cannibal Holocaust". They weren't zombies though but Amazon cannibal tribes.

    It was one of the first fictional movies to pass off the movie to viewers as being 'real' because it was shot with early mobile camera's. He even sent the actors off for a year to make the whole movie appear more genuine but had to send them back because there was a police investigation after the film was released over charges of sending the actors to their 'deaths'.
