This movie has some huge balls...more than I've seen in a long time. That does not mean I'm recommending viewers to partake. It was a bit like Pink Flamingoes, but in the horror movie genre. The "acting" outside of the murder scenes was really bad. And the film quality, production and editing was even worse than the acting, but I suppose that was to be expected. But then they get to the killings....which were just totally brutal. Unnecessarily long, with squishing sounds....taking things way too far. Its sort of funny because at first they do the typical 70's horror movie "move" by not showing most of the actual murder scene - but then they go farther and show all kinds of gruesome craziness after the actor has already died (here is where the squishing noises come into play). Completely out of control. I can see why this movie caused controversy and is listed as NR.
For the record, I shut my eyes twice during my viewing. I also decided to have a snack midway through...some creamy cucumbers cut up and spread on bread....then I almost threw up the cucumber spread when the champagne glass scene occurred. Especially as the 2nd glass was filling up. Holy crap....why? Followed directly by the french fry scene?!? Ugh.
You know, I got what I deserved by watching this mess. I got sick to my stomach and I got bad acting. But damn, some of the scenes were just so freaking crazy. I can't stop saying that. I guess for those of my friends out there that like horror - you have to check this out....but perhaps just temper your expectations and maybe you should fast-forward a lot and make the entire movie last 20 minutes.
My favorite part of this film was that the main detective guy looked at the camera twice and talked to the viewer. That is pretty funny if you ask me.
key words: eye popping (multiple), ironing of face, french frying face....salt and pepper
