Answer
Hello Dean,

That was a 1973 film called "The Severed Arm".

"When a deadly cave-in traps a group of men, they are driven to remove and eat the arm of one of their companions to avoid starvation. Many years after their timely rescue, the past comes back to haunt the members of the fateful expedition, when they begin to fall victim to a deadly murderer."
