Rot

I was bored stupid for most of this movie. Waded through the continuity errors, endlessly boring dialogue and really bad acting. Then the last ten minutes I sat there with my mouth hanging open wondering if I'd wandered into a wannabe film student's Cronenberg nightmare. And the whole 'plot' makes about that much sense as well, which is to say, not at all.

One of the worst movies I've ever seen. Makes Troll2 look like a masterpiece. Although I did laugh at the end, kinda, in a where did this come from, are you kidding me, this is the cringiest thing I've ever seen kind of way.

Not recommended.

I never heard about the movie before but the poster and trailer made me curious to check it out... And wow. What a treat. An original and really intense piece of filmmaking that is visually inspired, thrilling and unpredictable. Unnerving sequences that are exceptionally visceral, and a great finale that will stay in memory for a long time. Feels like the type of a movie that would turn into a cult classic if only it had a studio behind it or a bigger budget. Highly recommended. Check it out!

First of all, its always hard to watch a bunch idiot children try to confront something they dont understand. Its actually a great representation of americas college educated sheeple. But seriously, it really is a chaotic story with sub par acting.

Given Andrew Merril's extremely well-received short film with the same title, expectations were very high and it even received a special DVD release spot from TeatroVideo (with Mai-Chan's Daily Life and Vore Gore). That said, the nod to Cronnenberg is welcome. Acting and directing both above average. Character development is very good, esp for the genre. First act has a nice slow burn with good paranoia. Second act is basically just there. Wrong tempo, confined setting and very little hapening. Third act is okay as it has a couple of crazy scenes. Not a Cronnenberg homage and definitely not over the top violent (sans the cutting off of the penis and beating it to death with a hammer). 6/10.

I've had trouble sleeping for weeks until I watched this movie. I start the movie about 11pm on Shudder and I am out cold by 11:20pm!! I simply pick up where I left off the previous evening, then I am lulled to sleep by the most boring acting I've ever seen. The characters are almost all on one monotone level. Plus none of them are likeable, scary, interesting or even a tiny bit entertaining. The positive side is that it's so incredibly uninteresting it helps lull me to sleep no matter what the day has brought me to think about, for that I am eternelly grateful. Who knew kvetching Jewish folks could induce such boredom:
