There’s nothing quite like the offbeat cannibal Western Ravenous. Set in a snowbound frontier outpost in 1840s California, the film stars Guy Pearce as a cowardly U.S. Army officer who hides out in the mountains trying to avoid the Mexican-American War. Instead, he comes face-to-face with the legend of the Wendingo, a creature from Native American folklore that warns humans against consuming the flesh of their own kind, lest they become consumed with insatiable bloodlust. 

This underseen cult classic is full of delightful ‘90s character actors (keep an eye out for David Arquette as the camp’s cook), claustrophobic atmosphere, and some absolutely bonkers horror moments. But the most surprising thing about it is how funny it is.
