The Price We Pay

With such a great cast you'd think they could've done more? It's worth a watch for any gorehound but be warned - the editing in particular is f'in awful. The end credits also have a comically cheesy track? I have no idea what they were thinking.

That said, it's a decent idea for a plot and the cast do a pretty good job overall. I didn't hate it, I didn't love it, but if you're stuck for something to watch and are in the mood for some decent gore (the practical sfx are genuinely impressive) I'd say give this a go.

Be warned about the editing, though. It really is quite terrible. Headache territory at some points.

This is a decent one-time watch thriller/gore-fest B film that has the Blumhouse production feel to it. It was well directed, with a decently paced cohesive script, that offers plenty of thrills and gore for this genre's fans. It's nothing revolutionary we haven't seen before, but it was done right and it worked well. The comfortable 86 min runtime was used effectively. All casting and performances were great, especially the lovely Gigi Zumbado and Stephen Dorff, but I didn't like Emile Hirsch's character, who was more annoying than convincing, especially with his hilariously lame Harry Potter glasses. Omitting the geek glasses would've gone a long way for his character. Nevertheless, still a well shot film, with the exception the cinematography was too dark in many scenes, but the score was on point for a B film. A well deserved 7/10 from me.

I've seen a lot of worse films to be honest, and with better known actors.

It's a slasher of epic proportions in the typical Japanese style with lots of blood and gore, and copious amounts of unhuman barbarism to people.

If you're used to things like Saw and the Hostel series of films you're probably going to like this. It's got the right amount of brutality and blood to keep any fan happy.

It's a ludicrous plot, with at times silly dialogue, but in fact it does bring a bit of tension by the clever way it's directed and filmed.

I used to be a fan of Stephen Dorff back in the day but he went off my radar for years until this film. Emile Hirsch was never a great actor, but he's definitely done better than this one. I think the standout was Grace played by Gigi Zumbado. Not a bad role and quite well played all things considered.

Buying the DVD is completely out of the question but if you want a bit of tension, with a few chuckles thrown in for good measure, this is definitely worth a look one night with a friend and a couple of beers.

This movie is pretty pointless and lame to be honest. I found myself just wanting it end. I suppose it's just a cash grab but I just keep asking my self why this even exists.

There's nothing original about it, characters are all non-enjoyable, there's no good dialogue, and it's just exceedingly dark and gory for no reason.

It's a go thru the motions wannabe horror movie with nothing really of value. The editing is pretty bad too when it comes to continuity so you know there weren't many takes and it's just not satisfying to watch.

Overall it's a big NO. Didn't like it all and felt like it wasn't even worth watching. Don't bother. 3.8/10.

Emile Hirsch and Stephen Dorf both play great roles and they do it well. The storyline is a bit played out but there are some very imaginative blood and gore scenes that keep you watching.

I was very impressed with Emile Hirsch's acting in this movie. He plays the perfect maniacal crazy that you just want to hate. And Stephen Dorf plays an army medic who is hired to help out on a heist that goes severely wrong.

It's a solid B++ movie I would definitely recommend it to others. If you like the blood and gore genre. This movie will be on the top of the blood and gore B++ genre.

Watch it for yourself and find out!!
