The internet is a swamp worse than the Amazon depicted in the film. Finding a legitimate (or practically sourced) exclusive file requires knowing what to look for.
File Specifications for the Ultimate Fan:
For the download seeker, the exclusive content is the Italian "Director's Cut" (titled Cannibal Ferox not Make Them Die Slowly).
What the exclusive download must include:
Warning: Many "exclusive" links on private forums lead to the Australian VHS rip. Verify the runtime. If it is less than 93 minutes, delete it.
If you have the legal right (you own the physical media) and you want to create your own exclusive download:
In the grimy, controversial pantheon of 1980s exploitation cinema, few films carry the raw, visceral weight of Umberto Lenzi’s 1981 masterpiece of mayhem: Cannibal Ferox (released in the US as Make Them Die Slowly).
For decades, collectors have hunted for the “holy grail”—an exclusive, uncut, high-definition version of this film.

There is a fan editor known as "SpaghettiHarvest" who released an exclusive version you cannot buy anywhere else. Dubbed Cannibal Ferox: Savage Cut, it does the following:
Where to find this: The FanEdit.org forums. Search for "Cannibal Ferox Exclusive Reconstruction." You will find a .DLC (Direct Connect Link) file. This is the version that hardcore collectors claim is the definitive digital master.
