Mary,
CML has given you the exact meaning: what you saw in the Odissi interprettation may have been sanchArI's which as you know do not have to be exact, but just loosely associated with the central idea. 'anyAmukhE' by no stretch can mean rAkshashI's eating dead bodies - but, it is a disgusting sentiment and may have been used to elaborate on the 'repugnance' aspect.
