Ruggero Deodato (born 7 May 1939 in Potenza, Basilicata, Italy; died 29 December 2022 in Rome Italy) was an Italian film director and screenwriter, who is probably best know for the brutal horror film Cannibal Holocaust (1980). However, his career spanned a wide range of other genres including peplum, comedy, drama, poliziottesco, and science fiction. Other notable films include Live Like a Cop, Die Like a Man (1976), Last Cannibal World (1977), The House on the Edge of the Park (1980), Cut And Run (1984), and The Barbarians (1987).
Ruggero signed the Cannibal Holocaust Blu-Ray sleeve for me when he appeared at London Film & Comic Con in July 2019 (I was not able to attend this event but used the Showmasters pre-order service).
