Viewer discretion advised.
Only for the gore-hound. Some scenes made me take my eyes off the screen, others simply made me feel dirty, and that’s saying a lot about my threshold for this kinda stuff.
The texture of the film is close to a big-budget porn movie. It could be intentional because it adds to the terror.
Great twist though, at the end. And the boogeyman is intimidating but the character seems sympathetic towards our damsel in distress, which doesn’t work well for this torture-porn, shlock horror flick.
There are a few people, who just might take the leap. However, be warned; Reason makes Hostel and Saw and even Ichi the Killer look tame, mild, even pale once the credit roll starts and the atrocious ride comes to an end.
But does it, ever?
