    All I can say is wow... This movie proves that America is so de-sensetized to violence/gore that you can make a movie about anything. This is along the lines of Saw and the Final Destination series with flat out grossness.
    That being said, its a decent film... and I'd be willing to bet something like that could possibly happen.

    Take this as a warning... NOT FOR THE SQUIMESH OR WEAK AT HEART!!! THIS MOVIE IS STRAIGHT UP GROSS!!!

    The first half was boarderline porno and the second half was a gore fest. I had to pause it in the gore part for some of the folks i was watching it with.


    Good movie overall though

    Well Alex, I'm sure there's been worse... Theres just a whole lot of nasty scenes...anywhere from slicing achilees tendons, throats, little kids smashing skulls in with rocks, and then a good ole blow torch to the eye followed by a suicide by a train... I think it hits home a little harder because I think it could actually happen. I can't think of another movie I've scene that was that gross, maybe hellraiser, or there was a japanese movie called audition that was pretty sick.

    If you liked this you should check out suicide club. The trailer on apple.com (if it's still up) is about as disgusting as you would want

    I thought it sucked worse then howard the duck. It could have been done without sucking very easily. The whole movie seemed so slap dash and thrown together by high film students it wasn't even funny.

    and there are so many korean movies that make this look PG as far as violence
    also a shit load of japanese ones too. I think that americans are just starting to get on the uber gore band wagon personally.

    haha i saw this movie in theatres i enjoyed it, it was unique. I mean how many movies go from comedy, to softcore pornography, to suspense, to gore, to more gore. haha

    the eye scene and when the guy gets his knees drilled are hands down the worst parts.

    I want to force my dad to watch it
    he'll start squealing and cringing then be on the edge of his seat, it's quite funny to watch.
