Idk filmed well ,acting not great but theres no bloody gore 4 or 5 good scenes (not great) and all but one after 58 mins. Man do i hate movies that take 60 mins to have a kill.
Its exactly what you expect but does NOT deliver, they tryed to hard to make this film a Hollywood film. 4 stars since it was filmed and edited well.
This is not a XXX-porno but it is hard to describe this movie without using words that will be deleted from a censorship. It is a Ken Russelleque movie about every kind of sexual addiction and this is really funny!!! It is horror with a lot of fun, maybe a little bit to long, but what shells? You will see more than three scenes that you will never forget and the actress is beautiful - ACHTUNG! It is very british but nothing for the society of Merchant/Ivory-fans!!!
A traumatic childhood experience has left attractive brunette Helen (Fiona Horsey) with serious intimacy issues, but matters are made much worse when she is raped by her boyfriend and finds that she possesses the sexual equivalent of the Bermuda Triangle between her legs—any man who dares venture near her voracious vagina vanishes without trace! After a catastrophic visit to the gynaecologist that sees her cooch claim another victim, the distraught Helen leaves for London, with concerned love-struck loser Dennis (Paul Conway) in hot pursuit.
Not content with Penetration Angst simply exploring the age-old vagina dentata myth, writer/director Wolfgang Büld also sees fit to add several equally bizarre subplots, including Dennis's awkward relationship with Siamese twin Sylvia (Amy Steel), and a pub stripper planning an armed robbery on the Isle of Wight; the result is a chaotic, darkly humorous film full of violence and nudity (with Horsey spending much of her time naked) that delivers messed-up madness by the bucket-load, but which tries a touch too hard to accommodate every twisted idea that Büld could come up with.
At 102 minutes long, the film ultimately outstays its welcome (it could do with being at least fifteen minutes shorter) but not before delivering such delightfully deranged moments as Dennis accidentally shagging Sylvia's sister and separating the girls with an electric bread-knife, a man pulled tongue first into Helen's insatiable snatch (which moans 'Feeed meee' just like Audrey II in The Little Shop of Horrors), a newlywed Helen being humped by her father-in-law (with inevitable results), and Dennis applying yogurt to his sun-burnt bell-end.

Am I the only one to think that this is a bad movie?
I admit that horror movies often lack things like a big story or good acting or even good special effects. But the way these deficiencies come together in this movie is surprisingly pitiful.
Miserable story: The idea of a raped vagina that takes revenge by turning into a man eater sounds quite funny, but what the writer made out of it is stupid.
Bad acting: The actors move like marionettes. They play and look like people, who really try hard but completely fail to act.
Bad FX: Especially the explosion of the Van looks unspeakably cheap.
It is surprising that a director who made some nice movies during his carrier changes over to such messy stuff.

"Penetration Angst" is a low budget British film, made in 2003 by Wolfgang Buld. Until I stumbled across this little gem on the new UK Horror Channel a few years ago, I hadn't even been aware it existed. Now it's been catapulted to the heights of one of my low budget guilty pleasures, an area populated by the likes of "Hot Love", "Bride of Frank", etc.
This is a film that's a fine cocktail of modern horror, comedy and low-brow humour. There are some areas which plough the depths of bad taste - in short, it's thoroughly enjoyable. That's the beauty of the low budget film - no big studios that require satisfaction, just good old independent movie making with a good slice of originality and an eye for the all-night horror convention audience's tastes. Yep, I loved this film. Sat in the comfort of my armchair, I knew from the very start that this was one of those films that showed 2 big fingers to the world of Hollywood horror and instead decided to concentrate on a thoroughly British tale of armed robbery, Siamese twins and a woman with a man-eating vagina.
The star of the movie, Fiona Horsey, is very easy on the eye. In fact, she's a compete babe. A great new talent and hopefully a name to watch out for in the future.
To describe the plot details would spoil the surprises. If you have a chance, grab the film when you can and sit down with friends and a few beers and give it a go. If you're a fan of "Bad Taste", "Bride of Frank" or "Basket Case", I think you'll like this film...a lot.
