ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Cannibal film

Okay, you know how sometimes in movies, people get stranded in the jungle and have to survive with limited resources? Well, sometimes there are movies where they show people eating other people. This is called a cannibal film.

But don't worry, it's not real! It's just pretend. It's called fiction, which means it's made up. It's like when you play pretend with your friends, but on a bigger scale with cameras and actors.

Now, some people like these kinds of movies because they are scary and make them feel excited. But other people don't like them because they think they are too violent and gross.

It's important to remember that these movies are just pretend and not real life. We should never hurt other people or think it's okay to eat them. It's just something that people watch for entertainment, like a rollercoaster ride, but we should always be kind and respectful to others in real life.
