Missing Information

This article is missing information on the film's production, release, and reception which needs to be added to the article. Information on the film's production, including it's development and filming should be added in a production section while information on the film's reception including information on it's initial reaction and it's present day reception needs to be added in a reception section. Also this article needs information on the film's theatrical and Home Media releases which needs to be added as well. All of these additions needs to occur in order for this article to completely cover the information on its subject and fit Wikipiedia's standards of a well developed article.--Paleface Jack (talk) 16:08, 14 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

To follow-up this, the film also lacks any information regarding the infobox material (production crew, release dates, etc.), the lead is basically a mess of alternative titles with undue weight given on fringe re-release titles and the several sources are from IMDb or fan blogs. It basically requires a re-write per my recently added tags. Andrzejbanas (talk) 17:12, 20 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

How Is This Ironic?

In the introductory paragraphs someone has written (unsourced, so presumably an 'opinion') of the film: 'It is ironic that a film created to imitate the famous Richard Harris western would wind up being the template for what would later become the Italian cannibal film genre.'

In what way is this irony? Irony is, according to my nearest dictionary to hand, 'the use of words to express a meaning other than and esp the opposite of the literal meaning' - or an event doing the same (which would be closer to Dramatic Irony).

What would be ironic is if A Man Called Horse had a pro-vegetarianism or 'not eating people' message... but it doesn't.

Another 'ironically' later on is also not strictly ironic: 'Ironically, despite all the controversy surrounding the film's UK release, Man from Deep River was passed with a simple R rating by the MPAA.' Different countries/ cultures have different mores - but that's not irony - that's cultural difference: the article states many countries had problems with the animal cruelty and violence - the UK position was clearly not that abnormal. What would be truly ironic would be if, after the UK cut the animal cruelty and violence, the MPAA cut all the plot and only allowed the violence and animal cruelty to be shown to American audiences!

Ironically... there is one completely accurate use of the word 'ironically' in this article... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.24.15.225 (talk) 19:41, 26 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
