Flesh of the Unforgiven

Flesh of the Unforgiven is a diabolical terror train that rides through the dark heart of human pysche. A tripping fear feast to be slowly consumed and swallowed with a lump in your throat.

The performance are top shelf, with dramatic physical and psychological elements being thrown at the characters like a knife game at a carnival of carnage.

Director Hollow lights a slow spark in this slow burn film, which turns into a gigantic flame of fear.

Joe Hollow's "Flesh of the Unforgiven" is a bold, gonzo horror delicacy that thrives on its bizarre, unconventional structure. While certain moments feel familiar, Hollow doesn't aim to reinvent the wheel; instead, he makes it uniquely his own, and it works beautifully. At times, it feels as though you're watching the work of a cinematic child born from David Lynch and Tim Burton-August Kyss embodies this perfectly.

Debbie Rochon and Joe Hollow deliver strong performances as a husband and wife at a crossroads in their dysfunctional marriage. Their on-screen chemistry is palpable and, in the world of independent horror, refreshingly rare. With a cinematography and sound that are nicely polished, the plot twists and turns keep you engaged until the very end.

The special effects may appear a bit dated at times, but there's a charm to them that feels like a nostalgic nod to the golden era of horror-a time that many fans still long for.

Overall "Flesh of the Unforgiven" is a fun, memorable ride that might just invite a second viewing.

Big Debbie Rochon fan here!!! Not sure I've seen her in a role like this. She never ceases to amaze me!!! Really enjoyed it!!! Joe Hollow's Diary of Death? Assuming this is a series. Especially by the way it ended. If so... I can't wait to see where all this goes!!! Nice work Joe Hollow. 8 thousand dollar to make. Heck of a movie for such a low budget.

I was contemplating a few different new horror films to watch and a friend recommended Flesh of the Unforgiven and I have to admit I really enjoyed it. The opening scene grabbed me, a disturbing, scary yet sexy moment, I'M HOOKED :)

Right away I got into Jack and Sienna's characters. They are struggling financially and in their marriage. They head to a remote cabin in hopes of making things better and it's obvious their struggle is real, but you can tell they still truly love each other and want to work their issues out, mainly trust.

Doesn't help the relationship when she tries seducing him, but he turns her down due to him in the middle of writing so she storms off. To make matters worse his literary agent gives him 3 days to finish a treatment and he's struggling to write it big time. He then receives a video for inspiration from an unknown.....a vhs video, a disturbing video but yet it helps Jack. Worse is the video matter sucks him in wondering what will happen next.

A lot builds up to the surprise ending. Throughout the film there's wild and shocking moments and you have to pay close attention to all details to really catch what's going on. A few times I thought I had figured it out, then was smacked with an unexpecting moment. I'm actually going to rewatch it so I can pick up on more details.

Flesh of the Unforgiven is an example of why I enjoy Independent horror. They tell interesting stories and present them in a unique way. They also are not afraid to create something that is for everyone. Joe Hollow makes the most out of his budget and manages to feature some of the most talented folks in the indie scene. Some of the aesthetics are due to the limitation in budget but it is made up for in the writing, direction and talent on screen. If you are a fan of any of the individuals in this film or of true indie horror then you should check this film out.
