ANTROPOPHAGUS T-SHIRT

A cult film t-shirt available in black cotton.

The movie that ate its way into legend.
The Antropophagus T-Shirt pays gory tribute to one of the most gut-wrenching, brain-devouring, and censorship-inducing films of all time. Released in 1980 and directed by Italian exploitation master Joe D’Amato, Antropophagus — also known as The Grim Reaper — became notorious for its gruesome scenes, extreme gore, and unforgettable ending that even jaded horror fans couldn’t unsee.

Starring George Eastman as the feral, flesh-hungry killer hiding on a desolate Greek island, the film follows a doomed group of tourists as they stumble into his cannibalistic domain. With an atmosphere drenched in dread and a kill count that doubles as a censor's checklist, Antropophagus quickly earned its place on the UK's Video Nasties list — and in the hearts of grindhouse purists.

This t-shirt isn’t for the casual horror viewer. It’s a wearable warning, a cult classic callback, and a proud nod to those of us raised on pixelated gore, banned tapes, and Italian splatter at its most unapologetic.

Because some horror isn’t watched — it’s survived.
