      Karl the butcher!

      Now, this is an amateur home-video!! Its an ultra "Z" film only for one propose, too shock, with ultra violent and grotesque scenes, with a non linear\sense story.The film focus the character Karl the Buchter (Andreas Schnaas, also the director) in a killing spree, walking around the woods killing people without a propose, every signle death is sadistic and brutal..(what they are thinking?)!

      Its not a film of all gore fans, its beyond that,its a film for real ultra-violent cinema fans, in my opinion the film is a little bit sick,nasty and unnecessary..If you like this one, i recommend: "Antro da Necrofilia" and "Eu Zombie!!! 2- A carnificina total"

      Title pretty much says it like it is

      Well, it's violent, it's shit and it's boring. The only thing that looked kinda cool was the cross-scene (I mean whow!), but then you get something like a car driving on a road for a rock solid 6 minutes (where is the ffwd-button). I know there are a few fanzines who gave this one a good review, but my advice is, stay away from the V.S. series and go for one of the other Schnaas-flicks.

      Germanys most gory series ever... but not worth to look at

      I have seen three Schnaas movies, and I all hate them... though I like Splatter movies. The "Violent shit" series is the most gory of them, and I also think they are the most gory Schnaas movies. The plot, the actors, the effects are incredibly bad. I have seen one of the three "violent shit" movies, I dont know which one - does not matter anyway. The whole point of it is to kill a lot of people in very brutal ways - like slaughtering and castrating them. While other genre movies, especially the on a negative way very impressive "Cannibal Holocaust", try to put a sense in it or explain something, this is just GORE. They are disgusting because they are so boring. I dont know why Schnaas still even tries to put one of his nutty plots in it and does not just randomly mix butcher scenes.

      Does what it says on the tin.

      An escaped psycho with a massive meat-cleaver hacks his way through lots of people, meets Jesus, and 'gives birth' to a baby.

      German underground horror director Andreas Schnaas' definitely can't be accused of giving his debut splatter-fest a misleading title: Violent Sh*t is both violent and sh*t! Without even the slightest hint of an intelligible plot to get in the way of the endless barrage of offensive visuals, the film acts primarily as a showcase for Schnaas' cheap-jack gore effects, which range from the fairly routine (severed heads, hands and assorted meat-cleaver murders) to the downright revolting (a woman is cut open from her snatch upwards and disembowelled).

      The blood gushes in impossibly bright red, the various prosthetic body-parts look thoroughly unconvincing, the dialogue is dreadful (best/worst line: 'this bullsh*tting job is f*ucking me to sh*ts'), there is an overuse of horrible video effects (solarisation and shuddery imagery), all the actors are unattractive with the majority sporting nasty mullets or perms, and no-one even thinks to fight back against the killer.

      However, despite being one of the most inane, poorly constructed, and downright shoddy pieces of film-making I'll probably ever see, I've got to admit that, as a card carrying gore-hound, I enjoyed Violent Sh*t just a little for its sheer audacity, and occasionally, its plain weirdness.

      4.5 out of 10, rounded up to 5 for IMDb.

      What the hell did I just watch??

      After seeing the title of this movie a man can't help but be a little intrigued, so I picked it up. Wow, and is that saying right..."curiosity kills the cat" and it nearly killed me. This is by far one of the most sick and twisted movies I've ever laid eyes on. The movie is about the Karl "The Butcher," an unrelenting mass murderer who shows no mercy to his victims. Judging by the title, you can imagine some of the things he does to his victims...no nevermind, you can't because a sane person in their right mind wouldn't think of the sick ways to kill a person. 'Violent Shit' is filled with dismemberments, disembowelings, castrations, and even feces eating and it's some of the most sickening stuff I've ever seen. If you're into extremely low-budget (this movie is shot with a camcorder) and torture films, this pointless gorefest is the movie for you! Otherwise, if you're easily offended, avoid at all costs or else you will die of a heart attack after the first 10 seconds of the film.

      • Trivia
        Andreas Schnaas shot this with his friends over four extremely long weekends.
      • Crazy credits
        The opening credits list names such as "K. the Butcher Shitter" as if they were real names for the actors. The closing credits list, after the names of the actors, "and friends. And many more. Thank you"
      • Alternate versions
        There are two versions of VS. Both are basically identical except for a music track removal. Close to the end of the film there is a long driving scene that originally featured the WASP song "The Torture Never Stops" played in its entirety. In 1992 the film was slightly reedited to remove that song and feature an original song created for VS2 originally (The VS Theme). The removal probably had to do with copyright issues. The Astro Films Trilogy release of the film (which is in PAL format) features the original release with the WASP song intact. As where the Synapse Films Trilogy release (NTSC format) features the VS Theme Song.
