Human Nature

When I saw this sitting innocently on the shelf in Hollywood Video I knew right away that it would be another indie film gone terribly wrong, and I was right, but yet not entirely disappointed. IMO everything that was wrong was more technical (ie the sound was awful and sometimes the lighting would be bad) with occasionally a few screw ups by the director and actors. I think this is a good movie for aspiring student directors to watch. I actually thought the acting (mainly that of the lead female being tortured) was good and the effects were surprising...particularly one scene involving a bucket, the lead hookers foot and a hammer...but I don't want to spoil anything so I'll stop there. There were a few plot holes and scenes that didn't make sense with the storyline, but I think if you can forgive them then you will have a decent time watching it. 5/10

I didn't watch all of this movie because (a) the video quality and lighting were horrific , but most importantly.... the audio on the DVD was not mastered properly which gives me a poor impression of how this movie would turn out.

The audio was peaked too high, leaving the viewer hearing a static in the background. Likewise, when scenes changed, you'd hear the static cut off, and then cut back on again during fade-in's/fade-out's. If the editor ever reads this comment, LEARN ABOUT AUDIO LEVELS!!!

It ruined the entire movie...not that it was promising anyways. I learned a few lessons about judging DVD's by it's cover.

Like many others who gave this one a go, I can enjoy a good low-budget horror movie. Unfortunately, this movie is absolutely terrible. The plot is uninteresting and doesn't always make sense, the characters are not memorable, the acting isn't great, the audio quality is absolutely atrocious, and the movie is simply boring to watch. I wish I could put this movie in the "so bad, it's good" category, but this movie is just bad, with no redeeming qualities to make it enjoyable. Do not waste your time or money on this one. I never return my movies to the shop, in case I end up liking them in the future- but this was one of the very few that wasn't even worth having on the shelf, as I have no desire to ever view it again.

Don't waste your time or money. bad acting. bad audio. a snoozefest

wow...this movie was just awful. i'm a big fan of low budget/sort of "indie" films and student films and i have given many of them a shot. i have to say i've seen some that were just great and told good stories with memorable characters. i have to say this rates up there with some of the worst i've seen. the list of things completely wrong with this film probably stretches on forever. the sound quality was awful...i could barely hear them! characters weren't developed really well and it wasn't scary at all...not what i expected! i love horror movies and the cover of this DVD was definitely misleading. i was also hooked by the fact that it was based on a "true" story...but who wouldn't be if you adore horror flicks like i do? my advice...don't spend the dough to rent it!
