Vore Gore

A series of short-films depicting the uncommon fetish of vorarephilia, a person's unique arousal while imagining or even acting out the consumption of another human being.

The Good Stor(ies): Finger Licking Good-After being stimulated by a porn video, a young man begins to systematically carve his body apart in a sexual desire. This is the first really impressive segment as the slightly longer length than the first ones allows for this to actually do a lot more. The fantastic effects showing how far he's interested in mutilating himself and the extent to which he's willing to go make for a rather shocking series of visuals that successfully accompany the wild visuals. While some semblance of an explanation would be nice as to why the sink-drain set him off would be nice since it just seems to come out of nowhere, this is a minor quibble in an otherwise enjoyable segment.

Italian Ladies Do It Better-Given a chance to pass a design-school audition, a woman's madness to create the perfect garment leads her down a dark road. Yet another segment whose connection to the subject matter is tenuous at best, that this one at least manages to attempt a story about her psychological downfall and descent into madness seems plausible which makes for an endearing time. This storyline goes well with the few flashes of effects-work present which is about the only connection present also help to make this one rather enjoyable overall.

Infernal Gluttony 2-Situated in front of a disgusting feast, a man hungrily and messily devours anything and everything he can. What little can be said about this brief segment is devoted entirely to the gruesome visuals on display as the reckless abandon with which he slurps up and digests the slop in front of him manages to evoke some utterly grotesque visuals as the onslaught continues and more and more chunks of food are used before giving way to the expected cannibalism. There's no point or storyline purpose here but everything else about this one works rather nicely.

Yummy Fur-Spurred on by the previous success of her antics, a woman attempts to engage in the ultimate sexual thrill for herself. In terms of storyline and general concept, this is easily the most shocking and uncomfortable segment with what she sets out to depict and how it goes about doing so. The fact that this all presented as a bizarre performance piece done in real-life without much setup or context beyond her initial intro spiel about doing this creates a far starker and different reality than expected in these segments leading to a completely unexpected conclusion. This is easily the highlight of the whole experience.

The Egg-After taking an egg into the middle of the woods, a man finds that it has hatched into a woman who returns to find him with deadly consequences. The lone segment here with a fantastic plot and some naturalistic scenery, this one feels the most like an actual story being told rather than a random assemblage of gruesome images in an uncomfortable manner. While it still delves into that from time to time, the fact that it feels the most coherent and put-together makes this a sparkling highlight amongst the rest of the over-the-top segments since it deals the goods the others had with a purpose.

The Bad Stor(ies): Mouth-A series of grisly, close-up images of decayed, rotting teeth, dental extractions, and other work being accomplished in gruesome, grisly fashion. This segment is somewhat underwhelming, as the dialog-free narrative and immediate starting point cause this to start up without warning. As a collection of uncomfortable and graphic images about mouths being shown as decayed, rotting, and pulled apart the effects work on display is top-notch which furthers the overall sick vibe on display. It works best as an experimental, almost avant-garde piece on the subject but the lack of structure or notice makes it lose its point rapidly without knowing what we're supposed to do or connect this to the other segments here.

Sweet as Honey-Living alone in the rural mountains, a lonely beekeeper erotically fantasizes about eating himself. Another rather disappointing segment, the sole impressive sequence here is the erotically-tinged hallucination about the doppelganger appearing out o the mirror and savagely ripping a chunk out of his neck in a rather impressive gore effect. However, beyond that, it's not too shocking as the dialog-free structure keeps the connection with the bees a mystery as to why they're there or even what caused this to start with since the brief run-time makes all this somewhat hard to fathom.

Please, Not in My Mouth-Taking a bath after a long day, a man turns on her music player and fantasizes about torturing an innocent captive. This one should've been a lot better than it was with a pretty clever concept and an impressive design focus with the hypnotic flashing score and lights while she graphically and brutally carves the victim to pieces. However, the torturous music becomes monotonous after a while and the point here is somewhat lost as there's little connection to the topic at hand which leaves this one somewhat out-of-place here.

Stretching-Faced with constant stimulation and exposure to his fetish, a man drives deeper into his desire to be confined into small spaces. This really feels quite out-of-place and out-of-concept for what's going on since there's very little actual consumption of the human body going on. Rather, this one turns into a different fetish altogether that doesn't feel as connected to the concept at play as anything else, which ends up making everything here feel weird more than shocking or disturbing which is the point of everything else throughout here when it goes into far more experimental, arthouse territory.

Rated Unrated/NC-17: Extreme Graphic Violence, Continuous Full Graphic Nudity, and intense sexual acts.

I got to say after the rather extremely messed up beginning credits I was super pumped for this anthology, little did I know that was actually going to be the best part of this whole movie. Don't get me wrong there's some awesome gore on display throughout these shorts, but no real stories that hook you. Just random nuttiness that you never find yourself too engaged with. If you just want extreme shorts with barely there stories then this one might be for you. As for me I found it to be a mostly pretentious bore.
