Something that consumes human flesh (a link there to 'necrotising fasciitis' in the Things That Make Your Skin Crawl article smiley - smiley ).

I can already give you a usage for it:
"That film The 13th Warrior is the latest of a spate of films featuring anthropophagous enemies, don't you think?"

I've said this before, but

"A tiger with tastes anthropophagous
Felt a yearning inside his oesaphagus
When he spied a fat Brahnim
He said "What's the harm in
A peripatetic sarcophagus"
