Mark Tomaso is one of the two secondary antagonists (alongside Jack Anders) in the 1980 exploitation film Cannibal Holocaust.
He was one of the four members of Alan Yates documentary crew. In 1979, Mark and the rest of the crew travelled to the most unknown of the amazon forests in order to shoot a documentary that Alan called 'The Green Inferno". Mark and the rest of the crew seem like innocent people at first, but after a man named Harold Monroe finds their unreleased documentary footage, we see how monstrous Mark and the rest of the crew really were.
He was portrayed by Luca Barbareschi.
His Evil Ranking[]
What Makes Him Close to Being Pure Evil?[]
- He apparently served in a war of Cambodia, which judging by his words later in the film, involved him and/or his fellow soldiers burning down things.
- After the crew's tour guide Felipe got bitten by a snake, he held him down so that Jack Anders can cut his leg off and reacted with extreme excitement over this act as Alan Yates filmed it.
- He burned down the village that belonged to the Yacumo tribe while they are still inside of the huts, killing around 34 people including children while Mark just laughed manically the entire time.
- Before burning down the village, he also shot a piglet for no reason other than sadism.
- He gangraped a Yanomamo girl with Alan and Jack just for fun of it, and either killed her after they are done filming the rape or caused her to be impaled by the tribe for losing her virginity before marriage.
- He agreed with Alan that they should shoot Jack to save their own lives and filmed Jack getting butchered and eaten by the tribe for sadism.
- Instead of trying to save Faye Daniels when she was captured by the tribe, he instead convinced Alan that they have to run and save their own lives, leaving Faye to get raped, butchered and eaten by the tribe.
- Even Mark's own father hated him, mostly because he was a son of a bitch and he was no good, and felt that his death was well-deserved, unlike the other members of the film crew, who at least had someone who were concerned for their fates.
What Prevents Him from Being Pure Evil?[]
- He fails the Heinous Standards to Alan as all of his worst acts were done under the orders of him with Mark doing nothing unique enough to stand out from him. While the implied war crimes Mark committed in Cambodia could help him stand out, none of them are ever revealed and lack onscreen evidence.
